Layout provides foundational patterns for responsive pages.

v0.16.1AlphaNot reviewed for accessibility

Description

Layout provides foundational patterns for responsive pages. Layout can be used for simple two-column pages, or it can be nested to provide flexible 3-column experiences. On smaller screens, Layout uses vertically stacked rows to display content.

Layout flows as both column, when there's enough horizontal space to render both Main and Sidebarside-by-side (on a desktop of tablet device, per instance); or it flows as a row, when Main and Sidebar are stacked vertically (e.g. on a mobile device). Layout should always work in any screen size.

Accessibility

Keyboard navigation follows the markup order. Decide carefully how the focus order should be be by deciding whether main or sidebar comes first in code. The code order won’t affect the visual position.
