unveil2.js

A very lightweight plugin to lazy load images for jQuery
Based on luis-almeida/unveil.

Getting started

Install unveil2.js by downloading a copy of jquery.unveil2.min.js and add it to your page after jQuery:

<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.4.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.unveil2.min.js"></script>

And call the unveil plugin on the images you want to be lazily loaded:

$('img').unveil();

Note: If you load scripts at the bottom of the page, you don't have to wait for $.ready.

CSS background, retina images, breakpoints and more: see online examples.

For a complete list of options, see API section.
