I was struggling so much learning this Image container. I was surprised to see you made a video about this topic. Felt like you made it for me. don't stop making videos about nextjs. You are helping me a lot. Thanks a lot.

[@KiranPrajapati-eo9jr]

good

[@buddy.abc123]

This is premium content, it feels illegal to watch for free. Thank you for sharing, images are the hardest pain point for me

[@ByteGrad]

Enjoy!

[@reactjs1900]

Give him a super thanks then...

[@jsbr]

Technically every video is not free, you pay your attention to this very specific video and the cost is your time. Nevertheless, good video.

[@KiranPrajapati-eo9jr]

good

[@KiranPrajapati-eo9jr]

@@jsbr yes

[@meloniasz1]

Great explanation! Was looking for tutolial like this for several days

[@warodomwerapun6417]

That is a good explanation; I came across your video when I checked the Nextjs and VPS with the docker video. Well done!!

[@guts909]

You helped me a lot, thank you!

[@nicolascuor2378]

Thank you for this instructive content!

[@abdarker1043]

amazing video. i wish i had this video 1 year ago. now i know i messed up a lot back then

[@hbela1000]

Awesome video !

[@kickflipz]

Awesome video I learned a lot thanks

[@WaltersWatching]

been using the imagekit free plan for 4 years without issue

[@jacquelynecarmen]

Thank you sir ❤❤❤❤

[@marmunator]

Hey thanks for your video! Quick question, your media library doesn't show the file format. Is there some setting you have on that makes it behave this way?
In your video, your source for the image is "stockprices" instead of "stockprices.jpg". I tried to upload my images to imagekit, but when ever I leave out the file format (.png in my case), the images wont show up.
Any ideas?

[@ramez3038]

like what the actual FUCK
this video changed my life i was struggling alot with next Image and i didn't know we get all those features from it
thank u brother i really appreciate it

[@olusanyaolamide9764]

Wow thank you, Image has always given issues

[@user-vk6cb1zu7p]

When I make a web app having a container with many cards in it there I face many problems like when I resize my screen the images lose their quality and aspect ratio is not maintained. How to solve this problem please guide or make a separate video on it using nextjs I will be grateful to you!!

[@tasfiqjawaad3757]

If we don't want to use the loader thing, i.e. want to keep the image component server side, how can use set srcSet? I know that nextjs will automatically handle that, but if we're using transformation using the URL(query parameters for imagekit) and want to display different url for different sizes, how would nextjs know how to transform the images?

[@raves_r3177]

What if I want to give blur placeholder in a next/image that has a dynamic src

[@smart0758]

Is this feature available when deploying outside Vercel?

[@Euquila]

I don't believe so, it's proprietary storage/functions solutions that we are using when we deploy to vercel. You would need to write your own services to process the images and make them available through your own storage layer.

[@Smartercow]

Supabase does the same with optimizing images

[@asmet2701]

Hi I wanna add an e-commerce store app for my portfolio. I wonder which react stack is solid for it in 2024. Can someone suggest something? As a back I would prefer Firebase, also for styling scss+mui but need recommendations about state manager and other technologies and tools. Thanks!

[@hbela1000]

Hi, I have still an issue: How to upload image ? (need transform, before upload too).

[@qsales2022]

U are underrated 😢

[@muzzrayyan1290]

In the masonry secrtion, video does not tell us how to use that metadata api for height, it just cuts abruptly can anyone help how to?

[@tomich20]

yesterday i had to remove optimization in production, never could it make it work :/

[@kar-s6716]

I hate Image ... always struggling to replicate the same ui with this component
