Blockquotes

Blockquotes can be useful to highlight sections of text and can also function as a navigation device. Visually, they are obviously separate from the rest of the content and can provide prominent for the information contained within.

Basic

The basic blockquote just contains text. The suggested content limit is 450 characters or 80 words.

By default, each blockquote has a margin of space-small applied top and bottom. The first element inside the blockquote has no margin top applied to it. The last element inside has no bottom margin.

This tutorial covers four of the most important aspects in writing a literature review: criteria to use in choosing the best sources, how to structure your literature review, writing in an appropriate style, and maintaining a voice of authority.

<blockquote>  
	<p>Content goes here.</p>
</blockquote>

Featuring an image

The image width is 12.25rem (196px). Portrait images are supported but are best used sparingly. At X-Small and Small breakpoints, the image is stacked on top of the text.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nullam ornare consectetur tellus. Aenean non posuere tortor, pretium accumsan augue.

<blockquote class="complex">
	<div class="columns">
		<div class="img-wrap"><img src="my-image.jpg" alt="An example image" /></div>
		<div class="content"><p>Content goes here</p></div>
	</div>
</blockquote>

Blockquotes as navigation

Blockquotes can be useful to highlight sections of text and can also function as a navigation device. Visually, they are obviously separate from the rest of the content and can provide prominent for the information contained within.

The following pieces are available for use an:

• Category
• Title link (required)
• Description
• Extra information
• Icon

Category

This is a title

This is a blockquote. The suggested limit is XXX characters.

Extra information

<blockquote class="complex">
	<a href="mylink">
		<div class="content">
			<p class="category">Category</p>
			<h3>This is a title </h3>
			<p>This is the blockquote content.</p>
			<small>Extra information</small>
		</div>
		<div class="icon-wrap">
			<img src="my-icon.png" alt="" />
		</div>
	</a>
</blockquote>

It's unlikely (and not recommended) that all of these pieces be used at once. Here are some examples demonstrating suggested use.
