Implement the Intersection Observer API to optimize image loading in our project.
Problem Statement
Currently, our project loads all images at once, which can lead to slower initial page load times and increased bandwidth usage. Implementing the Intersection Observer API will help us load images progressively as the user scrolls, improving the user experience and overall performance.
Proposed Solution
We should follow these steps to achieve our goal:
Identify Target Images: Determine which images in our project should be loaded using the Intersection Observer API.
Implement Intersection Observer: Write JavaScript code to set up the Intersection Observer. This code will monitor when target images enter the viewport and trigger their loading.
Lazy Load Images: Update our image loading logic to use the Intersection Observer to load images lazily.
Testing: Thoroughly test the implementation on different devices and browsers to ensure compatibility and performance improvements.
Additional Information
Why This Matters: Implementing the Intersection Observer API for image loading is essential for enhancing our project's performance and user experience, especially on slower connections and mobile devices.
