## What it is
A React component library providing LazyLoadImage and LazyLoadComponent for deferring image and component loading until they enter the viewport. It uses IntersectionObserver with a scroll-position-tracking HOC fallback and is SSR compatible.

## Use cases
- lazy load images in a react app
- defer loading below-the-fold images until scroll
- improve page load performance by loading images on demand
- show a placeholder while images load
- apply blur or fade effects when images become visible
- lazy load react components on scroll
- lazy load images with server-side rendering

## When to choose
- you need a drop-in React component for lazy-loading images or components
- you want IntersectionObserver support with scroll-position fallback and SSR compatibility
- you need built-in placeholders and on-visible effects like blur or opacity transitions

## When to avoid
- you are not using React
- you need lazy loading for non-DOM assets like scripts or data
- you prefer a framework-level image optimization solution like Next.js built-in image handling
