Carousel lazy loading

[marceloverdijk]

It would be nice if the carousel would support lazy loading of images.
E.g. in case the 2nd or 3rd slide is a Google Maps Static image it would be useful ($$$) to only load it when the particular slide is being displayed.

You could try with loading=true for images. Lazyloading is outside the scope of our plugin and it would require a lot of code to achieve that.

@XhmikosR Could adding https://github.com/aFarkas/lazysizes a possible option to provide this feature?
Personally I think lazy loading is mandatory for today's websites since they reduce traffic and increase performance very easy.

Not really, no. Everyone's free to use whatever they want for lazyloading. What we could do if someone submitted a PR, is use Intersection Observer assuming it doesn't add a lot of code and it's handled gracefully.

Hi. Did this ever go anywhere? I've tried a variety of lazy loading tutorials to get it to work with a carousel inside of a modal but I'm unable to get anything to work. I assumed this was the default functionality, so I agree that it is basically a necessity these days.

have you been able to implement the feature? If yes, could you share your fork?
