A lightweight, zero-dependency JavaScript plugin to lazy-load HTML sections with animations using the Intersection Observer API.
You can install the plugin via NPM or use it directly via CDN.
npm install lazyload_html
import lazyload_html;
Or, you can use this package via a CDN:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/lazyload_html@latest" async></script>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>JavaScript Lazy Loading Sections</title>
</head>
<body>
<section data-lazy> <!--Add data-lazy attribute to any section to lazy load -->
<h2>Welcome</h2>
<p>This section will fade in when it enters the viewport.</p>
</section>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/lazyload_html@latest" async></script>
</body>
</html>
🔍 IntersectionObserver-based: Efficient and native — no scroll event listeners or performance hacks.
🎨 Smooth Fade-In Animation: Content fades in beautifully as it enters the viewport. Easy to customize via CSS.
🪶 Zero Dependencies: Just plain JavaScript. No jQuery, no frameworks, no bloat.
⚡ Tiny Footprint: Under 1KB when minified — optimized for speed and mobile performance.
🔧 Drop-In Integration: Just add data-lazy to your HTML elements — no config required.
🧱 Modular-Friendly: Use via <script> tag or import in modern JS/ESM environments.
🔄 One-Time Activation: Each section is revealed only once — no repeated observers.
✍️ Customizable Animation: Change transitions, duration, or add sliding effects with a few lines of CSS.
📦 Ready for NPM/CDN: Available as an NPM package or standalone JS file — use it how you like.
✅ Fully Browser-Compatible: Works on all modern browsers. Supports older ones with a simple polyfill.
