Add Proper Image Dimensions

Set width/height and aspect ratios to avoid layout shifts, stabilize C

Always set explicit width/height attributes matching intrinsic size of each src variant. Let browsers reserve space and reduce CLS.

This prevents unexpected layout shifts caused by images loading asynchronously, leading to a more stable user experience.

Use CSS aspect-ratio to keep placeholders stable. Maintain consistent

Set max-width:100% and height:auto; ensure srcset sizes align with layout widths. Avoid stretching icons/logos; use vector where possible.

Employing the `aspect-ratio` CSS property ensures images maintain their intended proportions, regardless of screen size or device resolution.

Placeholders & Skeletons

Use blurred or color placeholders within reserved boxes. Pair with lazy loading to avoid jumps when images load.

Employing placeholder elements like blurred backgrounds or colored boxes provides visual feedback while images are loading, smoothing out the user experience.
