  <BetterThings.Root
    ref={ref}
    className={pras("relative flex h-full w-full", className)}
    {...props}
  />
));

BetterVersion.displayName = BetterThings.Root.displayName;

const Img = React.forwardRef(({ className, ...props }, ref) => (
  <BetterThings.Image
    ref={ref}
    className={pras("h-full w-full", className)}
    {...props}
  />
));

Img.displayName = BetterThings.Image.displayName;

const Fallback = React.forwardRef(({ className, ...props }, ref) => (
  <BetterThings.Fallback
    ref={ref}
    className={pras(
      "flex h-full w-full items-center justify-center",
      className
    )}
    {...props}
