# Image Stroke

The Image Stroke system allows you to add an outline to a vector or transparent raster images with customizable stroke width and color. This is useful for creating images that stand out against shaded backgrounds.

### Usage

The Image Stroke system includes preset size modifiers that allow you to quickly apply different stroke widths to your images. The default stroke is 1.5px white, with additional options for base (1.5px, equivalent to default), small (1px), medium (2px), large (2.5px), and extra large (3px). The `image-stroke--base` modifier explicitly sets the default stroke width and is useful for responsive layouts.
