## What it is
Justified Gallery is a JavaScript (jQuery-based) library that arranges images into high-quality justified galleries, similar to the layouts used by 500px, Flickr, and Google. It supports thumbnails, captions, CSS animations, infinite scroll, and flexible input formats.

## Use cases
- display a photo gallery with justified rows like Flickr or 500px
- arrange thumbnails elegantly on a photography portfolio site
- replace masonry layout with a justified brick-wall image grid
- add captions and CSS animations to an image gallery
- build an infinite-scrolling image gallery on a website
- lay out images of varying sizes without cropping or gaps

## When to choose
- you need a Flickr/500px-style justified image layout in the browser
- your site already uses jQuery and you want a drop-in gallery plugin
- you want captions, filters, and infinite scroll with minimal setup

## When to avoid
- you need a dependency-free modern framework component (React/Vue) without jQuery
- you want a masonry-style column layout rather than justified rows
- you need server-side image layout computation

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, image-processing, animation
- domain: web-development, frontend, photography, media
- platform: browser
