Making shrine easier to use like NextJS's Image optimizations

[gczh]

When using NextJS, there's the nifty component provided by the framework.

When using it, it does Image Optimizations out of the box and generates multiple variants of an image to be served for different screen sizes.

I'm wondering if there is any way for Shrine to provide a similar developer ergonomics such as this? I get that Shrine is fundamentally a file attachment toolkit. However, as it's so flexible, i believe it'll be interesting provide a wrapper around Shrine to provide the same image optimisation ergonomics NextJS provides.

I'd be happy to work with anyone to write a plugin or something for this if they're able to guide me!

Shrine is a backend library, and Ruby apps don't have any build step, so it's a different architecture than Next.js. Next.js probably does pre-processing of different variants during building, which is possible because it controls generated HTML. Shrine cannot do that, because Ruby/Rails only evaluates HTML templates at runtime.
