Use [`next/image`](https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next/image) to improve performance with automatic [Image Optimization](https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/image-optimization).
> Note: If deploying to a [managed hosting provider](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment), remember to check provider pricing since optimized images might be charged differently than the original images.
> Note: If self-hosting, remember to install [`sharp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/sharp) and check if your server has enough storage to cache the optimized images.
If you would like to use `next/image` features such as blur-up placeholders but disable Image Optimization, you can do so using [unoptimized](https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next/image#unoptimized).
