+<!-- end auto-generated rule header -->
+
+⚠️ This rule _warns_ in the ✅ `recommended` config.
+
+## Why is this an issue?
+
+Using appropriate image formats and optimizing image sizes is essential for improving website performance, user experience, and overall environmental impact.
+Larger image file sizes consume more bandwidth, increasing the data transfer required to load a web page.
+Some image formats are generally considered better for eco-friendly web design and should be used in most cases.
+
+We recommend using the following formats:
+
+- *WebP*, developed by Google, is a modern image format that provides high compression efficiency without significant loss of quality.
+- *AVIF* (AV1 Image File Format) is a relatively new and highly efficient image format that is based on the AV1 video codec.
+- *SVG* (Scalable Vector Graphics) is a vector image format that is based on XML.
+Files are lightweight and can be scaled without loss of quality.
+
+```html
+<img src="./assets/images/cat.jpg" alt="Unoptimized image of a cat"/> // Non-compliant
+
+<img src="./assets/images/cat.webp" alt="Optimized image of a cat"/> // Compliant
+```
+
+Remember that the best image format may vary depending on the specific use case, content, and requirements of your website.
+Always test and evaluate the performance of different formats to find the optimal balance between image quality and file size.
+
+### Picture
+
+Images often represent most of the downloaded bytes, right after videos and just before CSS and JavaScript libraries.
+Optimizing images is important to reduce used bandwidth. The first step is to choose the ideal format for your
+display needs.
+
+Raster images should be reserved for photos and interface elements that cannot be displayed with icons or CSS styles.
+
+The appropriate format depends on the image properties : black & white or color, color palette, need for transparency...
+Among these properties, the possibility to irremediably alter images quality (lossy compression) tends to favor formats such as JPEG, JPEG XL,
+AVIF, or WebP, while needing transparency and/or the impossibility to alter the image quality (lossless compression) will tend to favor
+PNG or WebP lossless formats (which supports transparency).
+
+Format importantly impacts images size: on average, .webp images will be 30% lighter than .jpeg
+images or .png images. .avif images can be up to 20% lighter than .webp image and 50% lighter than .jepg images.
+
+Don't forget to pay attention to browser support. .webp images will not be recognized by
+old browsers and will not be displayed. It is possible to provide several formats for the same image 
+to overcome this issue. Some server-side modules (such as Google's modPageSpeed, also available for Apache
+and Nginx) even allow you to provide the appropriate image for the browser that is calling the server.
+
+Many tools will help you minimize images size:
+
+- SQUOOSH
+- CLOUDINARY
+- ImageMagick
+- PngCrush
+- JpegTran
+
+### Example
+
+In this example, the DOM <picture> element informs the browser that there are two images: a .webp image and a
+.jpg image, which is used by default. The browser will decide which image will be downloaded. If the .webp format 
+is supported, the image.webp image will be downloaded; otherwise, image.jpg image will be downloaded.
+
+```html
+<picture>
+    <source srcset="image.webp" type="image/webp">
+    <img src="image.jpg" alt="..." loading="lazy">
+</picture>
+```
+
+Also remember to consider browser compatibility.
+Older browsers may not recognize .webp/.avif images and fail to display them.
+To address this issue, you can supply multiple formats for the same image.

+
+#### Objective
+Reduce the size of files downloaded by users.
+
+#### How to implement
+Choose the image format best suited to the type of image and display context: use vector formats such as svg whenever possible (illustrations, icons, logos, graphs, etc.), jpg for photos and png for illustrations with solid colors.
+
+#### Means of test or control
+Evaluate the relevance of the image format displayed.
