Last month, I introduced the defer block and its trigger options to perform lazy-loading of a template block with various options.
One of the most flexible ways to user defer is to use the when condition because it allows us to load some code based on a boolean value – which means we have complete control over when to switch that value to true.
Maybe we want to do it once we receive a response from the server or wait for the user to click on a button, or both, for instance:
Another interesting feature is that when can be combined with other triggers. In that case, the first condition to be met would lazy-load the block of code, acting similarly to a logical OR:
And, of course, we can still use a placeholder to display before the block is loaded, as illustrated above.
