The Avatar component is a thumbnail representation of an entity, such as a user or an organization. They accept a src
attribute defining the image URL, and an alt
attribute for an accessible description.
By default, avatars are decorative and have an empty alt
attribute. Standalone avatars with no surrounding context must have a custom alt
prop defined for accessibility.
To internationalize an Avatar, a localized string should be passed to the alt
prop.
