Image

Component to render images

The <Image> is a content component that renders an image on the page.

The src property is always required. It can be used with a link or with an image from the server's file system.

To improve accessibility, alt information should be provided whenever possible. The alt attribute holds a text description of the image and screen readers read this description out to their users so they know what the image means. The alt text is also displayed on the page if the image can't be loaded for some reason: for example, network errors, content blocking, or linkrot.
