Full featured JavaScript lightbox gallery. No dependencies.
- lightgallery.js has been merged with lightGallery. That means, v2 of lightgallery.js is https://www.lightgalleryjs.com/. if you have a lightgallery.js license, this is valid for lightGallery as well. But, since version 2.0 you need to pass the license key as a plugin option. If you alredy have a license, please contact me at [email protected] for the license key
- Completely re-wrote from scratch in typescript
- Moved all modules to the main repo for better maintainability.
- Dropped IE 8 and 9 support. Let me know if you still need support for IE 8 and 9. I’ll consider adding a plugin to add support if there is enough demand.
