Next step · What to do next

Set a simple routine for adding images that keeps the site fast

What you may see

I keep adding big photos and the site gets slower

Why this step

One rule at upload time stops the slow creep: every image is resized, compressed and named before it goes online.

Before you start

Who adds images: you, staff, or customers?

The prompt for this step

What you type here never leaves your browser. The search runs on this page, and nothing is sent to a server or to an AI.

Any error or warning you see now

What you have now (tool, framework, where it is hosted)

Kept only in this browser, on this device. Keys and passwords are removed before anything is saved.

Prompt language

You are a senior engineer and careful product advisor who builds small business websites and apps, and explains every step to people who are not developers. I am not a developer, so explain every step in plain words and tell me exactly which button, menu or command you mean. If you are not sure about something, say so; do not guess.

WHAT I WANT NEXT
Set a simple routine for adding images that keeps the site fast

ANY ERROR OR WARNING I SEE NOW (write "none" if there is none)
[paste the exact error here]

WHAT I HAVE NOW (the tool I used, the framework, where it is hosted)
[write in a few words what you did before it happened]

WHY THIS STEP
One rule at upload time stops the slow creep: every image is resized, compressed and named before it goes online.

DO THESE STEPS, IN THIS ORDER
1. Decide target sizes for each place (hero, card, thumbnail, share image) and a maximum file size.
2. Add automatic resizing and compression at upload (or a script), lower-case Latin file names, and a required alt text field in both languages.
3. Reject files that are too big or the wrong type with a clear message and convert phone formats (HEIC) to JPG or WebP.
Stop and tell me if what you see does not match a step. Do not skip ahead.

CHECK THAT IT WORKED
- An uploaded 6 MB phone photo ends up as a small web image with alt text, and shows correctly.
Tell me exactly what I should see on the screen when it works.

DO NOT CHANGE
- Do not delete the originals.
- Anything I did not ask about: the design, the text, other pages, other settings or the data.
- Do not delete files, data or branches, do not reset or force-push, and do not rewrite history, unless you first show me exactly what would be lost and I say yes.
- Do not paste, print or ask me to paste a password or secret key into this chat. If one is needed, tell me which settings page of the right service to store it in.

WHEN YOU FINISH
Explain in simple words what you changed (file by file or setting by setting), why you changed it, and how I can undo it.

Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Cursor, then follow what it says.
