This feature is available in aem 6.4. OOTB image component has an option choose lazy loading of the images.

OOTB - there is no feature like this. When you use an image component - the images are loaded immediately.

You would definitely need to use custom libraries (jquery or others) for same, however, you could convert the normal images to PWA-ready images using DAM Asset Update Workflow.

Refer to link for command to configure in workflow -  Generate progressive image with imagemagick in AEM http://430014083@stash.genworth.net/scm/aem/aem-redirect-rules.git

I am facing an issue when I enable lazy loading. The images get disappeared as soon as I enable lazy loading. The problem also occurs when I try configuring widths of images from the option given below the 'Display caption as pop-up'. I am using AEM 6.5.

have configured property in design dialog  based on below. Still Lazy loading is not happening.

I tried by changing value to true as well as false. But both didnt worked.

 

Any suggestions is appreciated. 

 

<enableLazyLoading
 jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
 sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/checkbox"
 fieldDescription="Defer loading images until they become visible."
 name="./disableLazyLoading"
 text="Enable lazy loading"
 checked="{Boolean}false"
 uncheckedValue="true"
 value="{Boolean}false"/>
