react-quicklink-component

React component prefetching in-viewport links during idle time

Inspired by GoogleChromeLabs quicklink, implemented with React component

How it works

<Quicklink> component attempts to make navigations to subsequent pages load faster. It:

• Detects links within the viewport (using Intersection Observer)
• Waits until the browser is idle (using requestIdleCallback)
• Checks if the user isn't on a slow connection (using navigator.connection.effectiveType) or has data-saver enabled (using navigator.connection.saveData)
• Prefetches URLs to the links (using <link rel=prefetch> or XHR). Provides some control over the request priority (can switch to fetch() if supported).

we connect quicklink source code by React ref and design <Quicklink> component by render prop pattern.

Installation

For use with node and npm:

npm install --save react-quicklink-component

Usage

Once initialized, Quicklink will automatically prefetch children component's URLs for links that are in-viewport during idle time.

Quickstart:

<Quicklink quicklink={options}>
  <Comp1 />
  ...
  <CompN />
</Quicklink>

As for Quicklink's options prop, absolutely the same with quicklink
