Styled headings

.cd-h1 through .cd-h6 classes are also available, for when you want to match the font styling of a heading but cannot use the associated HTML element.

Display headings

Traditional heading elements are designed to work best in the meat of your page content. When you need a heading to stand out, consider using a display heading—a larger, slightly more opinionated heading style.

CD display heading 3

CD display heading 4

CD display heading 5

CD display heading 6


                            
                              
                            
                          

Lead

Make a paragraph stand out by adding .cd-lead.

Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus dolor auctor. Duis mollis, est non commodo luctus.


                            
                              
                            
                          

Inline text elements

Styling for common inline HTML5 elements.

You can use the mark tag to highlight text.

This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.

This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.

This line of text is meant to be treated as an addition to the document.

This line of text will render as underlined

This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.

This line rendered as bold text.

This line rendered as italicized text.


                            
                              
                            
                          

Beware that those tags should be used for semantic purpose:

  • <mark> represents text which is marked or highlighted for reference or notation purposes.
  • <small> represents side-comments and small print, like copyright and legal text.
  • <s> represents element that are no longer relevant or no longer accurate.
  • <u> represents a span of inline text which should be rendered in a way that indicates that it has a non-textual annotation.

If you want to style your text, you should use the following classes instead:

  • .cd-mark will apply the same styles as <mark>
  • .cd-small will apply the same styles as <small>
  • .cd-text-decoration-underline will apply the same styles as<s>
  • .cd-text-decoration-line-through will apply the same styles as <u>

You can use the mark tag to highlight text.

This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.


                            
                              
                            
                          

Abbreviations

Stylized implementation of HTML’s <abbr> element for abbreviations and acronyms to show the expanded version on hover. Abbreviations have a default underline and gain a help cursor to provide additional context on hover and to users of assistive technologies.

Add .cd-initialism to an abbreviation for a slightly smaller font-size.

attr

HTML


                            
                              
                            
                          

Blockquotes

For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document. Wrap <blockquote class="cd-blockquote"> around any HTML as the quote.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.


                            
                              
                            
                          

Naming a source

The HTML spec requires that blockquote attribution be placed outside the <blockquote> . When providing attribution, wrap your <blockquote> in a <figure> and use a <figcaption> or a block level element (e.g., <p>) with the .blockquote-footer class. Be sure to wrap the name of the source work in <cite> as well.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer posuere erat a ante.


                            
                              
                            
                          

Alignment

Use text utilities as needed to change the alignment of your blockquote.
