Common Mistakes to Avoid

Setting both explicit width and height while expecting aspect-ratio to work

aspect-ratio only applies when at least one dimension is auto. If you set width: 300px and height: 200px, the ratio is ignored. Set only width and let height be computed.

Using the padding-top hack when aspect-ratio is supported

The aspect-ratio property has 95%+ browser support. Use it directly instead of the padding-top: 56.25% workaround, which requires extra wrapper elements and absolute positioning.
