Show a proper loading state instead of “No sketches”

[SableRaf]

Increasing Access

Reduce confusion and anxiety when loading a large collection of sketches.

Feature enhancement details

Right now the editor shows “No sketches” while data is still loading. For large collections this can last several seconds or longer, making it look like all sketches are gone 😱

Even though I've been aware of the issue for a while, my heart always skips a beat when this happens 😅

Proposed fix

• Only show “No sketches” when the API confirms zero results
• Use a loading state (spinner or skeletons, aria-live="polite") while fetching
• Add an error state with retry if loading fails

Thanks for opening this! I can see this definitely giving quite a surprise 😂

Looking into SketchList.jsx, it seem like we do have something in place to have the Loader appear instead of an empty table. I'm assuming there could probably be some adjustments here that would help resolve this!

Hi @raclim , I'd like to work on this issue! I’ll implement a proper loading state, delay the “No sketches” message until the API confirms it, and add basic error handling with retry. Let me know if that works, and feel free to assign it to me.
