## What it is
jScroll is a jQuery plugin that adds infinite scrolling and auto-paging to web pages. It loads the next set of content via AJAX either automatically as the user scrolls toward the bottom of a container or when a next-page link is clicked.

## Use cases
- add infinite scrolling to a webpage
- auto-load the next page of content when the user scrolls down
- jQuery plugin for infinite scroll and auto-paging
- replace traditional pagination with continuous scrolling
- lazy-load paginated list items via AJAX
- show a custom loading indicator while fetching the next page

## When to choose
- Your site already uses jQuery and you want drop-in infinite scrolling with simple selector-based configuration
- You need control over when paging triggers, such as auto-trigger until N pages, click-to-load, or a bottom padding threshold
- You want to load only a fragment of the next response using a content selector and customize the loading HTML

## When to avoid
- Your project does not use jQuery and you prefer a dependency-free vanilla JavaScript solution
- You are building with a modern component framework like React or Vue where a framework-native infinite scroll library fits better
- You need virtualized rendering for very large datasets rather than appending paginated content to the DOM
