Increasing the size on an embedded tweet with react-twitter-embed

Increasing the size on an embedded tweet with react-twitter-embed

Using react-twitter-embed to embed a tweet makes the initial tweet look a bit small:

import { TwitterTweetEmbed } from "react-twitter-embed";

type IProps = {
  id: string;
};
const Tweet = (props: IProps) => {
  return (
      <TwitterTweetEmbed tweetId={props.id} />
  );
};

TwitterTweetEmbed takes an option object, but that did not increase the size like I wanted.

<TwitterTweetEmbed tweetId={props.id} options={{width: 550}} />

But wrapping the TwitterTweetEmbed in a div with a set width solved the issue:

const Tweet = (props: IProps) => {
  return (
    <div style={{ width: "600px" }}>
      <TwitterTweetEmbed tweetId={props.id} />
    </div>
  );
};

The result then looks like this:
