A JavaScript library that provides an optimized, cross-browser resize listener for DOM elements, using object-based or scroll-based detection strategies. It lets developers attach callbacks that fire whenever an element's size changes, including elements inside iframes.

Use cases

• detect when a div is resized and update its contents
• listen for element size changes without window resize events
• make charts or components responsive to container size changes
• watch resize events on elements inside an iframe
• remove or clean up resize listeners when components unmount

When to choose

• you need element-level resize detection in older or varied browsers
• you want a fast, dependency-free vanilla JS solution
• you need to support iframes or dynamically attached elements

When to avoid

• you only need window-level resize events (use native events)
• your project uses ResizeObserver and only targets modern browsers
• you need a framework-specific reactive resize hook
