IntersectionObserverAMD

The original, official W3C IntersectionObserver Polyfill, served in AMD.

Why AMD?

Because with AMD you can load the IntersectionObserver only where it's needed, as dependency of another script, e.g. vanilla lazyload.

How to use

Insert Require.JS's script (or another AMD module loader) in your page.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/requirejs@2.3.6/bin/r.min.js"></script>

In your script, create a dependencies array. For example, if you need IntersectionObserver polyfill and vanilla-lazyload, do like that:

var dependencies = [
    "IntersectionObserver" in window
        ? null
        : "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/intersection-observer-amd@2.0.0/intersection-observer.amd.min.js",
    "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vanilla-lazyload@11.0.5/dist/lazyload.amd.min.js"
];

Finally, use require to execute your script, having the dependecies loaded in the right order and ready to use.

// _ is always null, since the polyfill is attached to the window object
require(dependencies, function(_, LazyLoad) {
    window.ll = new LazyLoad({
        elements_selector: ".lazy",
        // More options?
    });
});
