The Picture Element Handles Fallbacks Gracefully

The HTML picture element lets you list multiple source formats. The browser picks the first one it supports.

When preparing assets, generate both .webp and .jpg versions so the picture element has both sources available.

Safari supports WebP from version 14 onward. Test your fallback setup in older browsers to confirm the JPG version loads.
