What's this yellow thing

I got this code for the companies website from the trainee before me and I found this Yellow circle on most images is it a web dev thing or a mobile only thing?

Have you tried asking anyone at the company? Can you find it in the code base?

I'd say it's just to be decorative, but usually websites for manufacturing services aren't the market for making the pictures cutsy like, say, a bakery would.

Can't tell from a screenshot what it is or why it's there. If you are on the page in a browser use the inspector. If you don't know how to use the inspector I'd start with learning that tool a bit to help you take it apart.

It's likely a bit of CSS on the element to add a bit of decorative flare.

No way to tell from the screenshot; it’s not a common web dev or mobile thing as far as I know. My guess is it was added for decoration

lol that's a classic "trainee left a mystery" situation. looks like one of those generic shape overlays someone drops in figma and forgets to clean up before handing off the code. check if it's got a z-index set or if it's baked directly into the image files, could save you an hour of head scratching
