The Best Way to import images in ReactJs, and NextJs πŸš€

Importing images was always a pain in the neck πŸ‘” especially importing them with long paths in multiple lines, so I searched πŸ”Ž a lot to find the best ones and then tested them to ensure, they were the best to use in daily projects πŸ‘. So after spending hours πŸ• using it on different projects, I finally discover the answer for daily usage. πŸ˜€

certainly, it's not the best answer for use in different projects, so I will create posts for each situation soon.

without any interrupting let's get into it. ✍️

Make Index file

In the public folder create a new file index.js, or index.tsx, or any folder you want to export its existing images.

there are lots of third packages, which you can use to import, but I prefer to import them manually! lightness.

Import/Export Images

then export them like below:

Import In React Components

and instead of importing images with long paths, now you import them like below:

SVGs

You can also make file SVGs, and return SVG elements like react components.

Conclusion

It may not be the best for specific projects ⚠️, but for regular react projects is OK.

If you know a better way than this one πŸ•΅οΈ. please πŸ™ comment it πŸ’­ below to let others and I know πŸ‘.

keep in touch πŸ‘‹
