The picture element

For now, you can still use the format in its almost complete glory with the native <picture> element in HTML. Why, you may ask? Well, the <picture> element allows progressive support. You can simply drop all image files in the order in which you want to load them. Your visitors' browsers load only one image at a time, which reduces the load on the server. Besides, you don't need a script to process multiple images. Currently 96.5% of browsers support the picture element

✔ Does not download more than one image at a time

✔ Native support for selecting the most appropriate image

✔ 96% browser support and automatic fallback

✔ Getting this implemented is easy and straightforward
