Responsive Images are images on a website that are optimized to adapt and display appropriately on various devices and screen sizes. The goal of responsive images is to minimize loading times, conserve bandwidth, and maintain visual quality while accommodating different contexts.
Techniques for responsive images include using the "srcset" attribute in HTML to provide multiple image sources at different resolutions and using "picture" elements with media queries to select the most suitable image based on the user's device.
Responsive images are a critical component of responsive web design and contribute to overall page performance and user experience.
