How to add an event listener for when element becomes visible with JavaScript?
To add an event listener for when element becomes visible with JavaScript, we can use the IntersectionObserver constructor.
For instance, we write
const options = {
root: document.documentElement,
};
const observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries, observer) => {
entries.forEach((entry) => {
callback(entry.intersectionRatio > 0);
});
}, options);
observer.observe(element);
to create an IntersectionObserver object with a callback and the options object.
The callback is run when the element we’re watching changes.
We get the element that intersects the element we’re watching with entries.
We set options.root to the root level element that we’re watching for element visibility for.
Conclusion
To add an event listener for when element becomes visible with JavaScript, we can use the IntersectionObserver constructor.
