- The best approach to lazy load images for maximum performance

Improving your web performance
If you want to know which browsers accept this new attribute you can check it out at CanIuse In case most of your users use a browser that doesn't have this attribute implemented yet you can always use a polyfill, I recommend this Polyfill

Native lazy-loading of images with zero Javascript
Browsers that do not support the loading attribute simply ignore it without any side-effects. Fortunately, there is a polyfill at Github available named loading-attribute-polyfill which can be used in those cases.

Show HN: I built a tool to generate triangulated art from images
I think OP's project would be great to add as a new entry to the SQIP demo site [2].
In the thumbnail demo, the LQIP-custom approach (simple resize to low-res jpg thumbail+optimize jpg) approach preserves the more salient features better and has compression on-par-or-better than SQIP with lower processing times. So in my opinion the simple extreme resize+jpgoptim is preferable for thumbnails.
Thumbnails are only small part of LQIP story though and I can imagine RH12503/Triangula working much better for larger images.

Alright, so SQIP generates an SVG from an image, see here and here.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing loading-attribute-polyfill and sqip you can also consider the following projects:
QCObjects - Full Stack Javascript Framework for Modern Software Development
import-cost - displays the import size of the package you are importing inside the code editor
