SimpleLightbox is a touch-friendly, responsive JavaScript image lightbox library for mobile and desktop, with optional jQuery support. It supports swipe navigation, pinch-to-zoom, double-tap zoom, keyboard controls, and CSS3 transitions.
Use cases
- add a lightbox to an image gallery on a website
- display full-size images when thumbnails are clicked
- support swipe gestures to browse photos on mobile
- enable pinch-to-zoom on touch devices
- show image captions in a modal overlay
- replace a jQuery lightbox plugin with a standalone ES6 alternative
When to choose
- you need a lightweight, minimalistic lightbox with lots of options
- your gallery must work well on touch devices and older browsers like IE 11
- you want optional jQuery compatibility or a standalone ES module
When to avoid
- you need a full-featured gallery with slideshows, video, or deep-linking
- you use a framework with its own dedicated image-viewer component ecosystem
