Minimalist dependency free Masonry layout library
MiniMasonry is a lightweight dependency free Masonry layout. It will compute elements position in JavaScript and update their positions using CSS's transform attribute. This means positioning does not trigger browser layout and use the device's GPU. This also allows CSS animation during element positioning.
MiniMasonry is responsive, you give it a target width and it will adjust columns number and elements width. MiniMasonry will increase element width (until another column can fit in the layout) but will never reduce the target width.
Installation
You can install MiniMasonry by cloning the repository, downloading the build type (minimasonry.min.js / minimasonry.esm.js) or using npm :
npm install minimasonry
Then, include the minified version of MiniMasonry.js on your website :
<script src="node_modules/minimasonry/build/minimasonry.min.js"></script>
or use it via ESM :
import MiniMasonry from "minimasonry";
Usage
To use MiniMasonry you should have a container relatively positioned with your elements as children. Those children elements must be absolutely positioned.
Then you can initialise MiniMasonry :
var masonry = new MiniMasonry({
container: '.masonry_transition'
});
