Guidelines

Card component must always be used within a panel. When used outside of a panel, the utilization of the Card component is strictly limited to two defined types: the Clickable Card and the Totalizer Card.

Totalizer and clickable cards are the only cards components to be used outside of a panel

The card component provides two background color options: white and grey. For visual distinction among multiple cards within the same panel, opt for a grey background.

Beyond this, the design allows for full creative flexibility in terms of padding, elements, and media, with the only requirement being consistency.

Cards or Datatalist ?

Datalist in its card variation may look a lot like cards. However, there is a slight difference between those two components.

Datalists are best for displaying a collection of similar items, acting like a simpler version of a datatable without all its functionalities. They allow for easy comparison between items since the type of information displayed remains consistent across the list.

On the other hand, Cards are more versatile and are not limited to showing repetitive information. Instead, each card can present unique content, making them suitable for a wider range of uses where diverse information needs to be displayed in an engaging way.
