Spotlight.js is a lightweight, dependency-free JavaScript lightbox gallery library for displaying images, videos, and HTML fragments on the web. It runs out of the box with no additional coding, HTML, CSS, or assets, and is fully configurable via markup data-attributes.
Use cases
- add a lightbox image gallery to a website
- display photos in a fullscreen viewer with zoom and fullscreen controls
- group images into multiple galleries on one page
- show videos and custom HTML slides in a lightbox
- add a photo gallery without writing JavaScript or CSS
- make gallery images responsive to viewport and bandwidth
- add keyboard and touch navigation to an image viewer
When to choose
- you need a zero-dependency, super-lightweight gallery that works by just including a script
- you want configuration purely through HTML markup and data-attributes
- you need video support, gallery groups, and theming in a simple viewer
When to avoid
- you need a full-featured React/Vue gallery component with framework integration
- you require advanced features like deep-linking, social sharing, or e-commerce galleries
- you need a library under very active development with frequent releases
