Dynamic Any Content Preloading Library – LoadAssets

Preview:

Description:

LoadAssets is a small Vanilla JavaScript library that preloads any content (images, javascript, CSS, inline SVG) and dynamically adds them to the DOM when needed.

How to use it:

Just include the LoadAssets JavaScript library on the webpage and we’re ready to go.

<script src="dist/LoadAssets.js"></script>

Basic usage:

// LoadAssets Object
var loadAssets = new LoadAssets([{
  type: 'style',
  filename: 'style.css',
  order: 1
},{
  type: 'js',
  filename: 'test.js',
  order: 2
},{
  type: 'svg',
  filename: 'images',
  target: '.advance',
  hasFallback: true
},{
  type: 'image',
  filename: 'img.png'
}], function(object) {
  console.info('Count: '+loadAssets.count, object);
  // This is already cached
  document.querySelector('.javascript')
          .insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend', '<img src="img.png">')
});
// Inject the assets
loadAssets.startLoad();
