How to use the Next.js Image Blur

6 replies
Last updated: Jun 17, 2021
Hey all! Does anyone have an example of using the new NextJs image blur with images from Sanity?

I've never tried it before but I think it should just work as long as you have the sanity cdn listed in your image domains in 
next.config.js

https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next/image#src
https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/canary/examples/image-component/pages/placeholder.js

i believe with dynamic assets you need to supply a blurhash to the image component too (i could be wrong)

oh right, yeah
If src is an object from a static import and the imported image is jpg, png, or webp, then blurDataURL will automatically be populated. Otherwise you must provide the blurDataURL property.

have you tried using the 
lqip
as the blurhash? (didnt know it existed until now)
