🆚 Lazy loading vs. Turbo

Native lazy loading is a technique to load non-critical images and iframes marked with the loading="lazy" attribute only when needed.

Turbo is a lightweight JavaScript library that provides the speed and feel of a single-page application without requiring developers to write any JavaScript.

It uses techniques such as Turbo Drive, which intercepts link clicks and form submissions to perform background fetches and update the page without a full reload, Turbo Frames, which divide a page into independent regions that can be updated separately or lazy loaded, and Turbo Streams, which enable real-time or asynchronous partial page updates over WebSocket or SSE using plain HTML.
