Image Optimization in Vite React vs Next.js
Coming from Next.js Image component, Vite React app loads unoptimized images. No automatic responsive images or lazy loading. Performance metrics show large image bytes.
Vite doesn't provide built-in image optimization like Next.js. Manual optimization or third-party tools needed.
Common Causes
- Not using lazy loading on images
- Loading full resolution images on all screen sizes
- Using PNG for photographs instead of WebP
- No image format negotiation for browser support
- Missing responsive image srcset
How to Fix It
Use lazy loading and responsive images:
Or use image optimization library like image-minimizer-webpack-plugin.

Sage Fulcher
Hey I'm Sage! Im a Boston area software engineer who grew up in South Florida. Ive worked at a ton of cool places like a telehealth kidney care startup that took part in a billion dollar merger (Cricket health/Interwell health), a boutique design agency where I got to work on a ton of exciting startups including a photography education app, a collegiate Esports league and more (Philosophie), a data analytics as a service startup in Cambridge (MA) as well as at Phillips and MIT Lincoln Lab where I designed and developed novel network security visualizations and analytics. I've been writing code and furiously devoted to using computers to make people’s lives easier for about 17 years. My degree is in making computers make pretty lights and sounds. Outside of work I love hip hop, the Celtics, professional wrestling, magic the gathering, photography, drumming, and guitars (both making and playing them)

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindset—balancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.
You don't need to be technical. Just describe what's wrong and a verified developer will handle the rest.

How do I generate multiple image sizes?
Use build tool plugin or pre-generate with Sharp library. Alternatively optimize at deploy time with Cloudinary/Vercel Images.
Should I use CDN for images?
Yes, CDN optimizes delivery and can resize on demand. Cloudinary, Imgix, or Vercel Image Optimization work with Vite.
