## Import

```js
import { AspectRatio } from '@chakra-ui/react'
```

## Embed Video

To embed a video with a specific aspect ratio, use an iframe with `src` pointing
to the link of the video.

Pass the `maxWidth` prop to `AspectRatio` to control the width of the content.

```jsx
// This video will have equal sides
<AspectRatio maxW='560px' ratio={1}>
  <iframe
    title='naruto'
    src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/QhBnZ6NPOY0'
    allowFullScreen
  />
</AspectRatio>
```

### Embed Image

Here's how to embed an image that has a 4 by 3 aspect ratio.

```jsx
<AspectRatio maxW='400px' ratio={4 / 3}>
  <Image src='https://bit.ly/naruto-sage' alt='naruto' objectFit='cover' />
</AspectRatio>
```

### Embed a map

Here's how to embed a responsive Google map using `AspectRatio`. To make the map
take up the entire width, we can ignore the `maxWidth` prop.

```jsx
<AspectRatio ratio={16 / 9}>
  <iframe src='https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d3963.952912260219!2d3.375295414770757!3d6.5276316452784755!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x103b8b2ae68280c1%3A0xdc9e87a367c3d9cb!2sLagos!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sng!4v1567723392506!5m2!1sen!2sng' />
</AspectRatio>
```
