How to serve images for retina displays? It seams that there is no modules for drupal 8 in stable release. How can we properly set up to serve hi-res for retina displays?

Core ships with the Responsive Image module, which can be used to serve different versions of an image based on breakpoints. That should allow you serve hi-res images for retina displays. – Neograph734 Jun 20 '17 at 20:59
You also have the chance to deliver double size low-quality images always. It is a valid and very popular technique.
You can do it with CSS or use the following module:https://www.drupal.org/project/hires_images

I've already resolve the issue with responsive images module and hires_images are not yet ready for drupal 8. I was lookin for drupal 8 solution. – Denis Omerovic Jul 5 '17 at 21:11

The last release for this module in Drupal 8 was in 2013... I doubt it works with the current release. – Kevin Sep 14 '17 at 19:40

You can use https://www.drupal.org/project/retina_images for drupal 8 as hires_images is still not available.
After installing most core effects will include a retinify checkbox that will do the job.
only downside is that it does not work with most effects provided by other modules (i.e. focal point) but there is certainly workarounds
