Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Cards

Cards contain content and actions about a single subject.

For additional information, see the API.

Elevated card with a secondary title and two actions: Action 1 and Action 2 in purple

Using cards

Installation

npm install @loipham/material-card

Styles

@use "@loipham/material-card";

@include card.core-styles;

In order to remain general-purpose and support e.g. images spanning the full width of the card, MDC Card does not include padding styles on the root element. When adding free-form text content to cards, padding should be set to 16px:

.my-card-content {
  padding: 16px;
}

Note: MDC Card's predefined classes for content areas (e.g. mdc-card__actions) take care of their own padding.

By default, cards expand horizontally to fill all available space, and vertically to fit their contents. If you'd like to maintain a consistent width and height across cards, you'll need to set it in your styles:

.my-card {
  height: 350px;
  width: 350px;
}

You can also place cards within layout containers, such as MDC Layout Grid or CSS Flexbox or Grid.

JavaScript

MDC Card itself does not require JavaScript. However, if you place interactive components inside your cards, you may want to instantiate ripples or other components. For example:

import {MDCRipple} from '@loipham/material-ripple';

const selector = '.mdc-button, .mdc-icon-button, .mdc-card__primary-action';
const ripples = [].map.call(document.querySelectorAll(selector), function(el) {
  return new MDCRipple(el);
});

Note: If your card includes any icon button toggles, you will want to instantiate MDCIconButtonToggle instead of MDCRipple.

Card

Card example

<div class="mdc-card">
  <!-- ... content ... -->
</div>

Note: MDC Card is designed to accommodate a wide variety of use cases. See the Card Contents section for information on helpers for specific types of content within cards.

Other variants

Outlined card

Outlined card with a secondary title and two actions: Action 1 and Action 2 in purple

By default, cards are elevated with no outline. You can render unelevated, outlined cards instead by adding the mdc-card--outlined modifier class.

<div class="mdc-card mdc-card--outlined">
  <!-- ... content ... -->
</div>

Card contents

MDC Card can be used for a wide variety of use cases, but it includes styles for a few common ones.

Primary action

If a majority of the card (or even the entire card) should be actionable, you can add the mdc-card__primary-action class to the region to give it MDC Ripple styles. You should also assign tabindex="0" to ensure it can also be interacted with via keyboard.

<div class="mdc-card">
  <div class="mdc-card__primary-action" tabindex="0">
    <!-- content within actionable area -->
    <div class="mdc-card__ripple"></div>
  </div>
  <!-- ... content ... -->
</div>

Note: We recommend avoiding adding other actionable items within mdc-card__primary-action, due to the overlapping effect of multiple nested elements with ripple and states applied at once.

Rich media

This area is used for showing rich media in cards, and optionally as a container. Use the mdc-card__media CSS class and the optional modifier classes.

<div class="my-card__media mdc-card__media mdc-card__media--16-9">
  <div class="mdc-card__media-content">Title</div>
</div>
.my-card__media {
  background-image: url("pretty.jpg");
}

Actions

This area is used to show different actions the user can take, typically at the bottom of a card. It's often used with buttons:

<div class="mdc-card__actions">
  <button class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button">
    <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
    <span class="mdc-button__label">Action 1</span>
  </button>
  <button class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button">
    <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
    <span class="mdc-button__label">Action 2</span>
  </button>
</div>

It can also be used with icon buttons:

<div class="mdc-card__actions">
  <button class="mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon"
     aria-pressed="false"
     aria-label="Add to favorites"
     title="Add to favorites">
   <i class="material-icons mdc-icon-button__icon mdc-icon-button__icon--on">favorite</i>
   <i class="material-icons mdc-icon-button__icon">favorite_border</i>
  </button>
  <button class="material-icons mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon" title="Share">share</button>
  <button class="material-icons mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon" title="More options">more_vert</button>
</div>

Be sure to include the mdc-card__action class on every action for correct positioning. In addition, button icons should use the mdc-card__action--button class, and icon actions should use the mdc-card__action--icon class.

To have a single action button take up the entire width of the action row, use the --full-bleed modifier on the row:

<div class="mdc-card__actions mdc-card__actions--full-bleed">
  <a class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button" href="#">
    <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
    <span class="mdc-button__label">All Business Headlines</span>
    <i class="material-icons mdc-button__icon" aria-hidden="true">arrow_forward</i>
  </a>
</div>

To display buttons and icons in the same row, wrap them in mdc-card__action-buttons and mdc-card__action-icons elements:

<div class="mdc-card__actions">
  <div class="mdc-card__action-buttons">
    <button class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button">
      <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
      <span class="mdc-button__label">Read</span>
    </button>
    <button class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button">
      <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
      <span class="mdc-button__label">Bookmark</span>
    </button>
  </div>
  <div class="mdc-card__action-icons">
   <button class="material-icons mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon" title="Share">share</button>
    <button class="material-icons mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon" title="More options">more_vert</button>
  </div>
</div>
Icons

We recommend using Material Icons from Google Fonts:

<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons">
</head>

However, you can also use SVG, Font Awesome, or any other icon library you wish.

Combined example

The following is an example incorporating all of the above elements:

<div class="mdc-card">
  <div class="mdc-card__primary-action">
    <div class="mdc-card__media mdc-card__media--square">
      <div class="mdc-card__media-content">Title</div>
    </div>
    <!-- ... additional primary action content ... -->
    <div class="mdc-card__ripple"></div>
  </div>
  <div class="mdc-card__actions">
    <div class="mdc-card__action-buttons">
      <button class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button">
        <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
        <span class="mdc-button__label">Action 1</span>
      </button>
      <button class="mdc-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--button">
        <div class="mdc-button__ripple"></div>
        <span class="mdc-button__label">Action 2</span>
      </button>
    </div>
    <div class="mdc-card__action-icons">
      <button class="material-icons mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon" title="Share">share</button>
      <button class="material-icons mdc-icon-button mdc-card__action mdc-card__action--icon" title="More options">more_vert</button>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Non-semantic content

It can occasionally be useful to add non-semantic elements to a card. For instance, some implementations might do this to add an overlay layer.

In this case, it's important to delineate between semantic (real) content and non-semantic content added by the implementation. To achieve this, simply wrap the semantic content in an mdc-card__content element. The non-semantic content can remain at the card's top level:

<div class="mdc-card">
  <div class="mdc-card__content">
    <!-- ... semantic content ... -->
  </div>
  <!-- ... non-semantic content ... -->
</div>
