X Pixel (formerly Twitter Pixel) is X's conversion tracking and audience building tool. It helps you measure ad performance, retarget website visitors, and optimize campaigns on the X platform. By default, c15t loads this script based on `marketing` consent.

## Implementation

> ℹ️ **Info:**
> See the integration overview for how to pass scripts to your framework (JavaScript, React, or Next.js).

```ts
import { xPixel } from '@c15t/scripts/x-pixel';

xPixel({
  id: '123456789012345',
})
```

## xPixelEvent

You can use the `xPixelEvent` function to track events. This is a wrapper around the `twq` function that the X Pixel script uses.

```ts
import { xPixelEvent } from '@c15t/scripts/x-pixel';

xPixelEvent('tw-xxxx-xxxx', { value: 10.00, currency: 'USD' });
```
