## Solution

Twitter Cards enhance how links appear in tweets. The twitter:card meta tag specifies the card type (summary, summary_large_image, player, or app). Add twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description, and twitter:image tags. For large images, use summary_large_image with images at least 800x418 pixels. Validate using Twitter's Card Validator tool.
