Hi! I'm having issues loading local images
import React, { PureComponent } from "react";
// Components
import SplashPage from "../components/SplashPage.jsx";
import Button from "../components/Button.jsx";
class Home extends PureComponent {
render() {
return (
<SplashPage>
<div className="home-page">
<img src={"./Logo.png"} />
<br />
<h2 className="title">Welcome to our humble Shop</h2>
<br />
<Button
onClick={() => {
this.props.history.push("/shop");
}}
>
Go shopping
</Button>
</div>
</SplashPage>
);
}
}
export default Home;
The png file in question is in the same directory, but nothing shows up!

importing method to use local files, as they will be bundled with webpack's file-loader.
Example:
<img src={require("./Logo.png")} />
That should work. If not let me know, it could be either a pathing issue or a webpack/server setup issue.

Courses Plus Student 10,684 PointsI just came across this question when googling for the same problem. I solved it by making sure my images are in the public folder. Hope this helps anyone with the same issue.

Treehouse Moderator 11,077 PointsThere can be multiple reasons why this isn't working.
Are you using webpack?
