GLightbox is a pure JavaScript lightbox library for displaying images, videos (YouTube, Vimeo, self-hosted), inline content, and iframes in an overlay. It is lightweight (~11KB gzipped), dependency-free, and supports galleries, keyboard and touch navigation, zoomable images, and theming via CSS.
Use cases
- display images in a lightbox popup on my website
- create an image gallery with prev/next navigation
- embed YouTube or Vimeo videos in a lightbox with autoplay
- show inline HTML content or iframes in a modal overlay
- add a mobile-friendly touch-swipeable lightbox
- zoom and drag images on desktop and mobile
- open multiple galleries on one page
When to choose
- you need a small, dependency-free vanilla JavaScript lightbox
- you need mixed content support: images, videos, iframes, and inline HTML
- mobile touch support and responsive behavior are important
- you want keyboard navigation and a themeable CSS skin out of the box
When to avoid
- you need a full-featured modal/dialog system with forms and focus trapping
- your project already uses a framework component library with a built-in lightbox
- you need advanced features like deep-linking, SSR integration, or React/Vue bindings natively
