Description: Lazy loading is a design pattern used in web development to optimize application performance by postponing the loading of resources until they are actually needed. This approach is particularly relevant in the context of modern web applications, where loading speed and user experience are crucial. By implementing lazy loading, developers can reduce the initial load time of a page, as only the elements visible on the screen are loaded. This not only improves the user’s perception of performance but also decreases bandwidth usage and server response times. In the realm of web development and various programming frameworks, lazy loading can be applied to components, modules, and multimedia resources, allowing applications to load more efficiently and scalably. This pattern also aligns with best practices in refactoring, as it enables developers to organize and optimize code more effectively, facilitating the maintenance and evolution of the application over time.
