where do i store my images for the website now?

Answered by joulev

you can still create the folder by yourself if you need it.

that said to serve images, it's not necessary to create a public folder.

creating a public folder worked it was able to get my src="/images/logo.png"

if its not necessary to serve it in the public folder where else would next.js recognise the images from?

the recommended method is

import logo from "./path/to/logo.png";

<Image src={logo} />

then you can put the file anywhere (and typically, you would put it in the same folder as the file calling it).

if you need to use <img> then

import logo from "./path/to/logo.png";

<img src={logo.src} />
