Next.js > Managing images

One of the mayor advantages of using DatoCMS instead of any other content management systems is its responsiveImage query, which will return pre-computed image attributes that will help you setting up responsive images in your frontend without any additional manipulation.

To make it even easier to offer responsive, progressive images on your projects, we released a package called react-datocms that exposes an <Image /> component and pairs perfectly with the responsiveImage query.

Our solution offers the same advantages of using Next 10 Image component, with the added benefit of having beautiful low-quality image placeholders (LQIP) in base64 format embedded directly within the page, without any additional request to be made by the browser or server:

To take advantage of it, install the react-datocms package:

yarn add react-datocms

Then, inside your page, feed content coming from a responsiveImage query directly into the <Image /> component:

import { request } from "../lib/datocms";
import { Image } from "react-datocms";
const HOMEPAGE_QUERY = `query HomePage($limit: IntType) {
  allBlogPosts(first: $limit) {
    id
    title
    coverImage {
      responsiveImage(imgixParams: { fit: crop, w: 300, h: 300, auto: format }) {
        srcSet
        webpSrcSet
        sizes
        src
        width
        height
        aspectRatio
        alt
        title
        base64
      }
    }
  }
}`;
export async function getStaticProps() {
  const data = await request({
    query: HOMEPAGE_QUERY,
    variables: { limit: 10 }
  });
  return {
    props: {
      data
    }
  };
}
export default function Home({ data }) {
  return (
    <div>
      {data.allBlogPosts.map(blogPost => (
        <article key={blogPost.id}>
          <Image data={blogPost.coverImage.responsiveImage} />
          <h6>{blogPost.title}</h6>
        </article>
      ))}
    </div>
  );
}
