Fixes #311

Give discription.

Images are now being cached by the browser and the loading is comparatively faster now. All time it takes is to fetch data from json.
I have made a script to fetch the images and prefetched that script using HTML.

I have made use of prefetch HTML attribute and I read on StackOverflow that this attribute is not widely supported by browsers.
Can you suggest me some alternative method to prefetch images folder or the participant.json file?

[anupm12]

This is my code

This is what it does

I don't know if this is preloading or not.

@pradeepgangwar take a look at it.

[pradeepgangwar]

This is not the correct way to load image and assign. I see that in your script you are appending it in body tag.
I will get back to this today evening.

[anupm12]

Ok @pradeepgangwar

@anupm12 Sorry for delay 😅 . I got busy with other things and completely forgot about this one. Let me check this.
