Wombat On-Demand Image Loading

completed by: Skinnynerd

mentors: Kai Blin

Wombat currently tries to load all assets that a directory or tag group contains at once, leading to long page load times. The goal of this task would be to use Ajax to delay loading of assets, speeding up the page display times. Ideally, only asset thumbnails that are visible in the current browser window are displayed and further thumbnails are loaded on demand while scrolling.
Language: JavaScript/Ajax and Python
