Since I wanted to have thumbnails for each post (the file it uses is defined by the thumbnail field in the front matter), I decided to add some code that copies the files from our posts folder to the assets folder in Angular. This way, we can easily reference them in our Angular code. However, some of the image files I would download from Unsplash.com (fantastic public domain images btw) were huge and would take a few seconds to load in the browser. So, I delegated this task to gulp, where the files would first be piped to imagemin and then copied to the assets folder. This optimized the images for faster load times. My gulpfile.mjs looks like this:

Lorem Picsum is a free picture placeholder service that can be used on websites, apps, or anywhere a placeholder image is needed. It provides a simple API that can obtain random images through HTTP requests, and can also specify specific image sizes and other parameters. Lorem Picsum also provides a website where pictures can be browsed and downloaded. These images are uploaded by photographers from the Unsplash community and are free for personal and commercial use. URL: https://picsum.photos/

export const loader = async () => { const response = await fetch('https://picsum.photos/200/300'); const blob = await response.blob(); return new Response(blob, { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'image/jpeg', }, }); };

Lorem Picsum provides a convenient source of high-quality placeholder images, ideal for design and development projects. It's super simple to use. Just add your desired image size (width & height) after the URL (https://picsum.photos/200/300), and you'll get a random image. It's perfect for when building and testing the interface of your project.

Lorem Picsum provides random placeholder images, adding visual appeal to your designs.

Something I'm thinking is to put a webpage in the background url that gives a random image (like what picsum.photos does but with a collection of my choice).
