# Frames

> Wrap images, videos, and other components with the frame component to add styled borders, captions, and visual emphasis to your content.

Use frames to display images, diagrams, videos, or other visual content with consistent styling and optional captions. Frames center content and provide visual separation from surrounding text.

<Frame>
  <img src="https://mintlify-assets.b-cdn.net/yellowstone.jpeg" alt="Photograph of a lake surrounded by trees with mountains in the distance in Yellowstone National Park." />
</Frame>

## Captions

Add additional context to an image using the optional `caption` prop. Captions appear in the frame below the image.

<Frame caption="Yosemite National Park is visited by over 3.5 million people every year.">
  <img src="https://mintlify-assets.b-cdn.net/yosemite.jpg" alt="Photograph of Yosemite Valley." />
</Frame>

### Markdown in captions

Captions support Markdown formatting, including links and bold text.

<Frame caption="Learn more about [Yosemite National Park](https://www.nps.gov/yose/index.htm) and plan your visit.">
  <img src="https://mintlify-assets.b-cdn.net/yosemite.jpg" alt="Photograph of Yosemite Valley." />
</Frame>

<Frame caption="**Important:** Check the [park website](https://www.nps.gov/yose/index.htm) for current conditions.">
  <img src="https://mintlify-assets.b-cdn.net/yellowstone.jpeg" alt="Photograph of a lake surrounded by trees with mountains in the distance in Yellowstone National Park." />
</Frame>

## Hints

Add text that precedes the frame using the optional `hint` prop. Hints appear before the frame.

<Frame hint="If you plan to visit Yosemite National Park, secure your permits before you go." caption="Yosemite National Park is visited by over 3.5 million people every year.">
  <img src="https://mintlify-assets.b-cdn.net/yellowstone.jpeg" alt="Photograph of a lake surrounded by trees with mountains in the distance in Yellowstone National Park." />
</Frame>

## Videos

When you place a `video` element with `autoPlay` inside a frame, the frame adds `playsInline`, `loop`, and `muted` attributes.

```mdx Video with autoPlay theme={null}
<Frame caption="Product demo">
  <video autoPlay src="/path/to/video.mp4" />
</Frame>
```

Videos without `autoPlay` do not have any additional attributes added by default.
