Responsive image markup on Wix sites

Sites with srcset and sizes responsive image markup have a good LCP most often: 95%, against 94% of all Wix sites. Sites with <picture> art direction responsive markup have it least often, at 92%.

Fixed-source <img> is the most used: 91.1% of Wix sites. Srcset and sizes is 91.0% of Wix sites.

Across the four LCP sub-parts in Chrome's field data, the largest gap between srcset and sizes and <picture> art direction sits in resource load delay: 445 ms median for srcset and sizes against 505 ms for <picture> art direction. Overall median field LCP is 1.2s for srcset and sizes (TTFB 419 ms, load delay 445 ms, load duration 130 ms, render delay 151 ms) versus 1.3s for <picture> art direction.

React sets the responsive image markup to srcset and sizes on 91% of its sites, and 94% of React sites have a good LCP, against 94% of all sites.

Does the framework explain the responsive image markup difference?

Almost every site with srcset and sizes responsive image markup is a React site, and almost every React site has srcset and sizes responsive image markup, so the data can't tell srcset and sizes responsive image markup and React apart.

How srcset and <picture> select candidate URLs during preload scanning

Chromium's preload scanner evaluates <source media="..." type="..."> and <img srcset="..." sizes="..."> before the main parser builds the DOM. Sites that serve responsive <picture> elements (37.5% of sites) achieve 92% good LCP (1.3s median LCP), compared with 95% on sites using <img srcset> (91.0%) and 94% across sites with fixed-source images (91.1%).
