When should the component be used?

  • To structure content.
  • To ensure/provide clarity.

Rules

  • Title and image are mandatory
  • If possible, the detailed text should not be too long, or only long enough so that the flip card does not have to be enlarged after the details are displayed.

Implementation

The sbb-flip-card component displays an informative card that reveals more information when clicked or toggled programmatically.
It's meant to be used together with sbb-flip-card-summary and sbb-flip-card-details.

<sbb-flip-card>
  <sbb-flip-card-summary>
    <sbb-title> Card Title </sbb-title>
    <sbb-image slot="image" image-src="..." alt="..."></sbb-image>
  </sbb-flip-card-summary>
  <sbb-flip-card-details> Some additional text. </sbb-flip-card-details>
</sbb-flip-card>

Style

The sbb-flip-card component has a predefined minimum height that can be customized by specifying the min-height property directly in the style of the host element with a custom height. Alternatively, when used within a CSS grid layout alongside other cards, the height can be adjusted using the grid-template-rows property. For consistent behavior and flexibility, it is recommended to use the minmax() function, for example: grid-template-rows: minmax(320px, 1fr).

<div
  style="display: grid; grid-template-rows: minmax(320px, 1fr); grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr);"
>
  <sbb-flip-card>
    <sbb-flip-card-summary>
      <sbb-title> Card Title </sbb-title>
      <sbb-image slot="image" image-src="..." alt="..."></sbb-image>
    </sbb-flip-card-summary>
    <sbb-flip-card-details> Some additional text. </sbb-flip-card-details>
  </sbb-flip-card>

  <sbb-flip-card>
    <sbb-flip-card-summary>
      <sbb-title> Card Title </sbb-title>
      <sbb-image slot="image" image-src="..." alt="..."></sbb-image>
    </sbb-flip-card-summary>
    <sbb-flip-card-details> Some additional text. </sbb-flip-card-details>
  </sbb-flip-card>
</div>

Slots

The component will display the content slotted in the summary slot in the main view, and the content slotted inside the details slot after the card has been flipped.

States

The sbb-flip-card will switch to the flipped state after the user clicks on it or after the toggle method is called.
