Description

Originally reported by @ilan-gold via Zulip.

Hello! A very simple question/request - how would I find out what the type of Images is from the documentation https://spatialdata.scverse.org/en/stable/api/SpatialData.html#spatialdata.SpatialData.images xarray? dask?

Research direction

Update the documentation so readers can determine what type of object Images contains, then verify that the rendered API page answers the xarray-versus-dask question.
