Rectangular Image

v0.0.0

The Rectangular Image component shows rectangular images and prevent unwanted reflow* by using an intrinsic ratio of 4:3 that scales on any device.

Please note that the aspect ratio of 4:3 is maintained no matter what image size is used. There is currently no good way of having responsive images without reflow.

Modifiers are used to provide different aspect ratios troughout the design.

By default the Rectangular Image stretches to the width of it's container.

* Browsers lazy load images by design. Until an image starts to load, the browser doesn’t know the dimensions of the image. So, on render the image causes reflow.
