Swipebox is a jQuery lightbox plugin for displaying images, videos, and inline content in an overlay. It supports swipe gestures on mobile, keyboard navigation on desktop, and CSS transitions with jQuery fallback.
Use cases
- add a lightbox image gallery to a website
- display images with swipe navigation on mobile
- show youtube or vimeo videos in a lightbox overlay
- add keyboard-navigable photo viewer to a jquery site
- open inline html content in a modal overlay
When to choose
- your site already uses jQuery and you need a simple lightbox
- you need touch/swipe support for mobile galleries
- you want easy CSS customization of the lightbox UI
When to avoid
- you use a modern framework like React or Vue without jQuery
- you need advanced features like social sharing buttons or zoom
- you need a dependency-free vanilla JavaScript lightbox
