- Go to command palette and type 'redim link' or 'redim download' and
the quality value you want to try.
- Paste the path

**Tip: Using redim quality : 90-80 reduces the size of your image without losing quality.**
The size of the original image is 7.36MB and the optimized image with quality 80 has a size of 849.08KB, saving 6.5MB. At the same time it is downloaded in webp format and helping to optimize your app.
Original image:7.36MB and Optimized image using redim : 849.08KB
You can save the link and use it inside your html tags instead of uploading the image from your local, and the image is hosted on cloudinary.
