Prose
A readable long-form container with bounded measure and resilient wrapping.
Preview
Readable by default
Long-form content stays within a comfortable measure and wraps resiliently, including unusuallylongunbrokencontentthatwouldotherwiseoverflowitscontainer.example.
Controls
Device view renders in an isolated frame so real responsive breakpoints apply. Switch to Full for overflowing popovers.

Guidance
Layout and content structureStructure content hierarchy and responsive relationships.
Use when
- Use to structure hierarchy, spacing, and responsiveness so content is easier to scan and navigate. Do not let layout primitives substitute for semantics, headings, or interaction rules users still need.
Avoid when
- Avoid using prose as a default simply because it is available in the library. Choose it only when its interaction cost, visibility, and behavior match the job to be done.
- Task length
- short
- Interaction cost
- low
- Interruptiveness
- none
- Input precision
- none
- Mobile / touch risk
- low
- Accessibility risk
- medium
- Needs background context
- No
- Comparison needed
- No
Preferred alternatives
- Semantic HTML with standard flow
Anti-patterns
- Using visual layout as a substitute for semantic structure

Usage
<x-ui.prose>
<h3 class="text-xl font-semibold">{{ __('Readable by default') }}</h3>
<p class="mt-3 text-muted-foreground">{{ __('Long-form content stays within a comfortable measure and wraps resiliently, including unusuallylongunbrokencontentthatwouldotherwiseoverflowitscontainer.example.') }}</p>
</x-ui.prose>
Accessibility & localization
data-slot
Keyboard focus-visible
Localized labels
- Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
- Uses semantic HTML and a stable
data-slotattribute for styling/scripting hooks. - Focus-visible rings use the
ringtoken so keyboard focus is always visible. - Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
- Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
- Labels go through
__()and the component uses logical properties (ms-*,text-start,start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.

render this same code; there are no preview-only components.
