Lazy Loading Images? Don’t Rely On JavaScript! — Robin Osborne

Lazy loading images is a great way to save your users data. However, on bad network connections, JavaScript can easily break, and, thus, users often won’t be able to see the images at all. To tackle the issue, Robin Osborne shares an approach in which he first goes through the obvious JavaScript-enabled, then JavaScript-disabled scenarios, and concludes with a clever solution to solve broken JavaScript for image lazy loading.
