gatsby-image-agilitycms

With the release of Gatsby V3 and the new Gatsby Image plugin, we were able to create gatsby-image-agilitycms. This is a custom image component that take's images stored within Agility CMS and handles all of the hard parts of displaying responsive images that follow best practices for performance on your website or application.
