tags: layout,visual,intermediate
---
Changes the fit and position of an image within its container while preserving its aspect ratio. Previously only possible using a background image and the `background-size` property.
- `object-fit: contain` fits the entire image within the container while preserving its aspect ratio.
- `object-fit: cover` fills the container with the image while preserving its aspect ratio.
- `object-position: [x] [y]` positions the image within the container.
