Vue progressive image loading plugin

Article here : https://www.kevindesousa.me/vue-image-loader/

Installation

$ npm install @kevindesousa/vue-image-loader

Progressive loader image

Instead of using the normal img tag to load images

<img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/33109/fall-autumn-red-season.jpg?fit=crop&crop=entropy&w=3456&h=2304" />

use the image-loader component already globally available after the plugin installation

<image-loader
  src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/33109/fall-autumn-red-season.jpg?fit=crop&crop=entropy&w=3456&h=2304"
  width="864px"
  height="476px" />

Placeholders

To be able to immediately show some feedback to the user, it is possible to pass a placeholder image, which could be also 1% the size of the main image: it will be blurred so you can go crazy with optimizations here.

in this example I actually use the same image, but you have the idea here

<image-loader
  src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/33109/fall-autumn-red-season.jpg?fit=crop&crop=entropy&w=3456&h=2304"
  placeholder="https://images.pexels.com/photos/33109/fall-autumn-red-season.jpg?w=100"
  width="864px"
  height="476px"
/>
