Aspect Ratio

AspectRatio is a container that will always maintain the same width-to-height ratio. It will expand to fill as much width as possible.

In React, AspectRatio is a container that will always maintain the same width-to-height ratio. It will expand to fill as much width as possible.

Usage

AspectRatio exposes a single prop called ratio.

ratio can be calculated by dividing the content's height by its width.

e.g. 1) If your content is 16px wide and 9px tall, your ratio is 9 / 16 = 0.5625

e.g. 2) If your content is a square, your ratio is 1

Try tweaking the ratio prop and resizing the playground. Notice that the box always retains the same aspect ratio as the container changes size!
