# or
yarn add chrobustimage

Usage

Import the RobustImage component into your React application:

import React from 'react';
import RobustImage from 'chrobustimage';

function MyComponent() {
  return (
    <div>
      <RobustImage
        src="https://example.com/my-image.jpg"
        alt="A descriptive alt text"
        fallbackSrc="/images/fallback-image.png" // Optional: Custom fallback image
        className="my-image"             // Optional: Custom CSS class
        style={{ width: '300px' }}      // Optional: Inline styles
        placeholder={<p>Loading...</p>}  // Optional: Placeholder content
      />
    </div>
  );
}

export default MyComponent;

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
src	string	required	The URL of the image.
alt	string	"Image"	Alternative text for the image (for accessibility).
fallbackSrc	string	none	URL of the image to display if the main src image fails to load.
lazy	boolean	true	Enables or disables lazy loading.
className	string	""	CSS class name to apply to the image.
style	object	{}	Inline styles to apply to the image.
placeholder	React.ReactNode	null	A React node (e.g., a component, text, or an image) to display while the image is loading.

Fallback Image

If the src image fails to load and no fallbackSrc is provided, the component will display a default placeholder image.

Placeholder Content

The placeholder prop allows you to display custom content while the image is loading. This can be a loading spinner, a blurred version of the image, or any other React node.

Lazy Loading

Lazy loading is enabled by default, which improves performance by only loading images when they are visible in the viewport. You can disable lazy loading by setting the lazy prop to false.

Customization

You can customize the appearance of the image using CSS classes and inline styles. The className prop allows you to apply CSS rules defined in your stylesheets, while the style prop allows you to set inline styles directly.
