Frequently Asked Questions

Why on earth would you make this?

Sorry :-(

Will it slow down my website?

The image request uses the fetch API asynchronously, unless you're loading large images there shouldn't be a significant impact.

What happens on mobile?

By default the images will still be downloaded. It's up to you to decide if you want to detect for a mobile device and not push the image to the console.

Who made this?

I did, you can find me on Twitter for more nonsense like this.
