What is Lazy Loading?
Lazy loading is an approach that loads only the images visitors are currently looking at. This way, NitroPack improves the page’s loading time without reducing its actual size.
Can I have more than one Lazy loading service active?
Technically - “Yes, you can.” But it is not recommended.
Applying multiple layers of Lazy loading can cause issues such as:
Missing images;
Extended loading time;
Incorrect styling;
With NitroPack, you get anything you need for successfully lazy loading your images. That’s why we would like to show you how to disable the lazy loading provided by third-party vendors.
