You can use IntersectionObserver to recognise if something is on screen. If you make a placeholder and magnetise it to the bottom of a parent div then you can make it possible.

But if you don't want to use IntersectionObserver API you can try getBoundingClientRect() + window.innerHeight like shown below:

const targetEl = document.querySelector('#target');
const windowsHeight = window.innerHeight;

// I heartily recommend to use some kind of throttling (lo-dash.throttle) here to reduce amount of callback executions
document.addEventListener('scroll', () => {
  const bottom = targetEl.getBoundingClientRect().bottom;
  
  if (windowsHeight > bottom) {
    console.log('bottom is visible');
  } else {
    console.log('bottom is hidden');
  }
})
/* All css are just for the demo, you only need a JS code */
body {
  padding: 300px 20px;
}

#target {
  height: 2000px;
  width: 100%;
  background-color: gray;
}
<div id="target">

</div>
