How to add stroke to text in photopea?

I'm using Photopea for some quick image editing online. How do you add a stroke to text in Photopea? I can't seem to find the option.

I researched this since I use Photopea for medical slide prep. Double-click the text layer to open 'Layer Style', check the 'Stroke' option, and adjust your size.

It's exactly like Photoshop bro. Just double click the layer, go to Eff (Effects) at the bottom, select Stroke, and change the color and size.

I am not an expert, but in Photopea you just double-click the side of the text layer. A menu pops up where you can check the Stroke box.

My son uses Photopea for school posters. He showed me that you double click the text layer, select 'Stroke' from Layer Styles, and set the position to 'Outside'.

Do not strain your eyes too much on these online softwares. Double-click the layer name to find the stroke settings, and rest your eyes every half hour.

Ensure you save your work frequently before applying heavy styles like strokes, as browser-based editors can crash and make you lose progress.

I used to ignore headaches while staring at Photopea, please take care of your eyes. For the text stroke, use the Blending Options by double-clicking the text layer.
