@unpic/webc

WebC component for responsive, high-performance images. Perfect for Eleventy. Generates a responsive <img> tag that follows best practices, with the correct srcset, sizes and styles. Detects image URLs from most image CDNs and CMSs and can resize images with no build step.

Features

• Just an <img> tag! No extra elements, no runtime JavaScript. Easy to style.
• Automatically generates correct srcset and sizes attributes for responsive images
• Handles responsive resizing of images, preserving aspect ratio
• Uses native lazy loading and aync decoding for offscreen images
• Handles different image layouts: fixed, constrained and full width
• Uses eager loading and high priority fetching for important images
• Delivers modern image formats, including WebP and AVIF if supported by your browser
• No build step or server-side rendering required: uses your existing image CDN or CMS, with no additional configuration
• Uses unpic to support most image CDNs, including Cloudinary, Imgix, and Shopify
• Can generate a low-res background image for a blurred placeholder effect

Installation and usage

npm install @unpic/webc

The requires @11ty/webc version 0.9.0 or later, because it uses the new webc.attributes feature.

If you are using this with Eleventy, there are a number of ways of defining WebC components. In the example we're using webc:import, but check out the docs for other options that handle imports automatically. You can then use the component in your templates:

<unpic-img
  webc:import="npm:@unpic/webc"
  src="https://cdn.shopify.com/static/sample-images/bath_grande_crop_center.jpeg"
  layout="constrained"
  width="{800}"
  height="{600}"
  alt="A lovely bath"
></unpic-img>

For the supported props, see the docs.
