## README

# is-image

> Check if a file path is an image

It just checks the extension. Use [`image-type`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/image-type) if you want to check the actual file.

## Install

```sh
npm install is-image
```

## Usage

```js
import isImage from 'is-image';

isImage('source/unicorn.png');
//=> true

isImage('source/unicorn.txt');
//=> false
```
