enter-view

Dependency-free JavaScript library to detect when element enters into view. See demo. It uses requestAnimationFrame in favor of scroll events for less jank. Less than 1kb minified + gzipped.

Installation

Old school (exposes the enterView global):

<script src="https://unpkg.com/enter-view"></script>

New school:

npm install enter-view --save

And then import/require it:

import enterView from 'enter-view'; // or...
const enterView = require('enterView');

Usage

enterView({
    selector: '.class-name',
    enter: function(el) {
        el.classList.add('entered');
    }
});

enterView({
    selector: '.class-name',
    enter: function(el) {
        el.classList.add('entered');
    },
    exit: function(el) {
        el.classList.remove('entered');
    },
    progress: function(el, progress) {
        el.style.opacity = progress;
    },
    offset: 0.5, // enter at middle of viewport
    once: true, // trigger just once
});

Options
