What It Does

This plugin enables lazy-loading of media using the native browser feature. It enhances website performance by leveraging the loading attribute supported by modern browsers.

If the loading attribute is not supported, it falls back to a JavaScript solution based on IntersectionObserver. In cases where JavaScript is disabled but the loading attribute is supported, a noscript variant will be added.

The plugin aims to provide a lightweight solution for lazy-loading, eliminating the need for heavy custom JavaScript. As browser support for the loading attribute improves, the plugin will automatically enhance its functionality.

To use the plugin, simply activate it, and all images and iframes in your post content will be loaded lazily.
