--description--

Notice how some of your images have become distorted. This is because the images have different aspect ratios. Rather than setting each aspect ratio individually, you can use the object-fit property to determine how images should behave.

Give your .gallery img selector the object-fit property and set it to cover. This will tell the image to fill the img container while maintaining aspect ratio, resulting in cropping to fit.

--hints--

Your .gallery img selector should have an object-fit property set to cover as the value.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.gallery img')?.objectFit, 'cover');
