Does Cloudflare Pages have any integrated support for Cloudflare Images
I assumed that Cloudflare Pages had support for image optimisation out-of-the-box, like Vercel does. But I can't find anything. Do I have to upload images to Cloudflare Images as a completely separate process? Is there any script available for doing this?

perhaps you're confusing the Cloudflare images product with the Cloudflare image optimization product.Cloudflare images is an image hosting service. The Cloudflare image optimization service is not a hosting service.

Cloudflare Image Resizing vs Cloudflare Images
the Cloudflare images services is mainly for companies or people who have lots of images think hundreds or thousands that are used to in their CMS is or massive content farms. That service allows you to define predefined offs image sizes for optimize images across the web.
the Cloudflare image resizing service is for anyone. I allows you to have image source links in your HTML that will resize images to whatever is best for the circumstances. For example you could let the user view a wide width image for large devices and a smaller width image for smaller devices. When using the image optimization service or image resizing your images can be stored anywhere on the Internet. They could be stored on Amazon S3, on cloudflares R2 service, on your server, or anywhere else.Got it, thanks for clarifying @justinnoel 🙏
I came to ask the same question!
Use case: I'd like to just stick lossless images into my public folder and have them delivered in the best image format for each client request.
I think I need to do this outside of Pages by using Images? But that means I can't keep my images in the Pages codebase.
You can use the Cloudflare image resizing service with your images in your public folder. Please note that the services for pro plans only.
