#hey, be lazy Downloads Latest Stable Version License

bLazy is a lightweight script for lazy loading and multi-serving images, iframes, videos and more (less than 1.4KB minified and gzipped). It’s written in pure JavaScript why it doesn’t depend on 3rd-party libraries such as jQuery. It lets you lazy load and multi-serve your images so you can save bandwidth and server requests. The user will have faster load times and save data usage if he/she doesn't browse the whole page.

WHY BE LAZY?

  • bLazy is used on big sites with millions of monthly visitors so it has been tested out in the real world.
  • bLazy is written in pure JavaScript why it doesn’t depend on 3rd-party libraries such as jQuery.
  • bLazy is lightweight, less than 1.4KB and less than 1.25KB if you don't need IE7- support.
  • bLazy is very fast. It has focus on performance why it also auto-destroys when it's done lazy loading.
  • bLazy can lazy load all types of images including background images.
  • bLazy is future-proof. It supports srcset and the picture element.
  • bLazy can serve retina images on retina devices.
  • bLazy can lazy load everything with a src like iframes, HTML5 videos, scripts, unity games etc.
  • bLazy supports all browsers used today including legacy browsers like IE7 and 8.
  • bLazy supports all main module formats like AMD, CommonJS and globals.
