Layout and Styling Options
Usage
Do
- Choose the card layout (horizontal or vertical) that best fits the section’s design and available space.
- Select the appropriate content option based on the information’s relevance to the audience.
- Keep the card layout consistent across similar sections for a polished, professional look.
- Align the card in a way that complements surrounding content and maintains visual balance on the page.
- When adding multiple cards, consider spacing between them to keep the design clean and easy to navigate.
- Place the card in sections where concise, structured information about a person is useful, such as team or speaker pages.
Don't
- Avoid using this component for lengthy biographies or detailed descriptions; it’s designed for concise information.
- Don’t place profile cards in sections with heavy text or unrelated content; keep them in areas where they can stand out.
- Don't stack too many profile cards in a small area, as this can make the page feel crowded.
- Avoid mixing this component with other similar-looking components in the same section to prevent visual clutter.
- Avoid frequently switching between vertical and horizontal layouts on the same page to maintain visual consistency.
- Don’t rely on the card component as the main way to convey critical information, as it’s intended for quick reference only.
- Avoid placing the card against a background color that clashes with the component’s styling, as this reduces readability.
Accessibility
- Image alt text should be added automatically without the page author needing to do anything.
