Any plans for cards?

Do you have plans for cards? That the only part I need to use shoelace.

Thanks

I'm not sure, really. I do use BS4 cards for a few things, but I usually end up spending more time customizing them than it would take to roll my own.

For example, look at all the potential ways cards can be used in Bootstrap. Personally, I've only used a few of these styles, and the same result could have been achieved using flexbox + a couple of padding/border properties.

I'll leave this open to gather feedback from the community. However, before people 👍 or 👎 I'd like to emphasize that Shoelace isn't trying to replicate Bootstrap — it provides something more lightweight and fundamental that can be customized and extended as needed.

Maybe the best place for cards is a third-party component?

I'd love to hear ideas though.

I think cards are a great idea for an add-on. I'd suggest following #3. Maybe we can add it as a first-party component. I'd just prefer not to have it in core.
