What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A tiny (~400 byte) JavaScript library that lazy-loads images only when they are in the viewport and the user has stopped scrolling. It supports data-src, data-srcset, and picture/source elements with placeholder-based progressive enhancement.
Use cases
- lazy load images on scroll
- defer image loading until user stops scrolling
- reduce page bandwidth by loading only visible images
- blur-up placeholder image loading
- responsive image lazy loading with srcset
When to choose
- you want an extremely small dependency-free lazy loading script
- you want to avoid loading images users scroll past
- you need progressive enhancement with placeholder images
When to avoid
- you need native loading='lazy' features or IntersectionObserver-based libraries with more options
- you need lazy loading for iframes or videos
- the project needs active maintenance or a license
