Components: Card Layout

Guides card layout design for scannable, responsive content display. Cards are self-contained containers that group related content; used in grids for blog posts, products, templates, tools, features, galleries, and integrations.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Card Anatomy

Element	Purpose
Container	Border, background, shadow; consistent padding
Image / Thumbnail	Visual anchor; consistent aspect ratio (1:1, 4:3 common)
Title	Clear; keyword-rich where relevant
Description / Metadata	Supporting text; date, author, category
CTA	Action button or link; "View," "Use," "Connect," etc.

Principle: One card = one topic. Keep each card focused for scannability.

Card Types by Use Case

Type	Typical Elements	Page Skill
Product card	Image, name, price, CTA (Add to cart, View)	products-page-generator
Template card	Thumbnail, name, short description, "Use" or "Preview" CTA	template-page-generator
Tool card	Name, one-line benefit, CTA to tool page	tools-page-generator
Feature card	Name, benefit, optional screenshot	features-page-generator
Gallery / Showcase item	Thumbnail, title, creator, link	showcase-page-generator
Integration card	Logo, name, short description, "Connect" or "Install"	integrations-page-generator
Blog / Article card	Cover image, title, excerpt, date, author	blog-page-generator, article-page-generator
Resource card	Thumbnail, title, format (guide, webinar), CTA	resources-page-generator

Layout & Responsiveness

Grid: CSS Grid
```
repeat(auto-fill, minmax())
```
or Flexbox; columns adapt to viewport
Mobile: Single column on small screens; 2–4 columns on desktop
Consistency: Same padding, spacing, and aspect ratios across cards
Hover: Subtle elevation (shadow, translate-y); avoid scale that causes layout shift (CLS)

Design Principles

Principle	Practice
Visual hierarchy	Title > description > CTA; clear flow
Scannability	Minimal text; benefit-led copy
Consistency	Same structure across all cards in a grid
Action clarity	One primary CTA per card; avoid choice overload

SEO & Schema

Cards themselves: No specific schema; layout is UI
Content in cards: Use appropriate schema for the page (Product, Article, ItemList, etc.); see schema-markup
Images: Alt text on thumbnails; see image-optimization
Links: Descriptive anchor text; internal linking; see internal-links

Grid vs List vs Masonry vs Carousel

Layout	Best for	Skill
Grid	Visual content (products, templates, gallery); equal emphasis	grid
List	Text-heavy (blog index, docs); compact; scan by title	list
Masonry	Varying heights; image gallery, portfolio	masonry
Carousel	Limited space; testimonials, logos, featured rotation	carousel
