How transforms work
Append query params, the edge does the rest. Each variant is cached independently after the first miss.Common params
See Image Optimizer for the full param list and examples.
Pick your stack
- Next.js — custom loader for the built-in
<Image />component. - Nuxt — Tenbyte provider for
<NuxtImg>. - Astro — drop-in
<TenbyteImage />component plus client SDK. - React Native — replace
<Image />withTenbyteScaledImage. - Android / iOS — generate URLs from view dimensions.
- Shopify — Liquid snippet that rewrites Shopify CDN URLs.
Verify any integration
content-type doesn’t change to your requested format, the master file probably wasn’t fetched yet (first request is a miss) or Image Optimizer is off.
Dev-friendly checklist
- Master image is high-quality JPEG or PNG. Don’t upscale.
-
format=autoeverywhere — covers AVIF / WebP / JPEG fallback. - Cap
widthto the breakpoints your design system actually uses. - Long TTL on image paths (see cache rules).
- Lazy-load below-the-fold (
loading="lazy"or framework-equivalent). - Test on real devices —
dpr=2matters for Retina screens.
