next export with Image API

Why This Error Occurred

You are attempting to run next export while importing the next/image component configured using the default loader.

However, the default loader relies on the Image Optimization API which is not available for exported applications.

This is because Next.js optimizes images on-demand, as users request them (not at build time).

Possible Ways to Fix It

• Use next start to run a server, which includes the Image Optimization API.
• Use any provider which supports Image Optimization (like Vercel).
• Configure a third-party loader in next.config.js.
• Use the loader prop for next/image.
