Basic card
Cards are used to organise information related to a single topic. Cards can contain multiple elements, such as images, links, actions, text and more.

Images
A card with an image. For full width images, add the img tag outside the CardInner
container. For images with inner padding, add the img tag inside the CardInner
container.

<Body>
<a href="#">Action</a>
</Body>
</CardInner>
</Card>
Clickable cards
For cards that contain a single link, the hit area for that link can be made to wrap the entire card. This pattern may be used on cards that act as a preview for an article or blog post, for example. These cards could contain an image, a title and a brief summary of the article. Avoid wrapping an entire card in an anchor tag as this can be a difficult experience for a screen reader user.
