We are currently researching and creating a collection of entities that will comprise the core building blocks of the web framework. Examples of entities include gallery, bar, and main navigation.

Entities should be context-sensitive so that, if they're in a grid, they behave accordingly, or if they're arranged just within the overall container, they fall into the overall container.

Current Entities

  • entity/code
  • entity/blockquote
  • entity/button
  • entity/details
  • entity/embed
  • entity/figcaption
  • entity/figure
  • entity/form
  • entity/header
  • entity/footer
  • entity/img (might not be explicit, and rather just max-width set in layout/fluid)
  • entity/list
  • entity/nav
  • entity/section
  • entity/source
  • entity/summary
  • entity/time
  • entity/video
