Layout

The containers. A section is one full-width band: it owns the background, the padding, the container width and the edge shape. Everything else sits inside one.

Columns

Two, three or four columns, or a narrow column beside a wide one.

Two

Text beside a picture is the common case. The columns can be centred against each other.

A column of words

Each column holds its own stack of blocks, in any order.

Three

Three cards across, one each.

Left sidebar

A narrow column on the left, a wide one on the right.

One setting

The layout is a picker on the block, not a new block.

Unset is the old look

Nothing already published moves when a variant ships.

The wide column

The sidebar keeps its width while this one takes the rest.

Right sidebar

The same thing, mirrored.

The wide column

On a phone the narrow column drops underneath.

Editor-facing

No developer needed to change how a block presents itself.

Same markup

The variants are CSS over one DOM, so they stay accessible.

Tabs

Six looks for the same tablist. Every guide page on this site is built from them, and they are stacked headings until the script upgrades them, so a blocked bundle still reads.
