Problem: Images that fill containers without distortion.

Solution#

html
<img class="w-full h-64 object-cover rounded-xl" src="photo.jpg" alt="" />

Why this works#

object-cover crops to fill; object-contain letterboxes. Fixed h + w-full keeps the slot stable.

Variants#

  • Responsive: add screen prefixes to the core classes
  • Dark: pair each color utility with its dark: twin
  • Animated: add transition + a state variant for motion
