Examples

Basic Card

Basic cards aren't very exciting, but they can display any content you want them to.

This is just a basic card. No media, no header, and no footer. Just your content.
<wa-card class="card-basic">

</wa-card>

<style>
  .card-basic {
    max-width: 300px;
  }
</style>

Card with Header

Headers can be used to display titles and more. If using SSR, you need to also use the with-header attribute to add a header to the card (if not, it is added automatically).

Header Title

This card has a header. You can put all sorts of things in it!
<wa-card class="card-header">
  <h3 slot="header">Header Title</h3>
  This card has a header. You can put all sorts of things in it!
  <wa-button appearance="plain" slot="header-actions">
    <wa-icon name="gear" variant="solid" label="Settings"></wa-icon>
  </wa-button>
</wa-card>

<style>
  .card-header {
    max-width: 300px;
  }

  .card-header h3 {
    margin: 0;
  }
</style>

Footers can be used to display actions, summaries, or other relevant content. If using SSR, you need to also use the with-footer attribute to add a footer to the card (if not, it is added automatically).

</style>

Media

Card media is displayed atop the card and will stretch to fit. If using SSR, you need to also use the with-media attribute to add a media section to the card (if not, it is added automatically).

<div class="wa-grid">

Orientation

Set the orientation attribute to horizontal to create a card with a horizontal, side-by-side layout. Make sure to set a width or maximum width for the media slot. Horizontal cards do not currently contain the header and footer slots.

The actions slot is only available for the horizontal orientation

  <wa-card orientation="horizontal" class="horizontal-card">

      alt="A kitten sits patiently between a terracotta pot and decorative grasses."
    />
