Documentation

Blankslates are for when there is a lack of content within a page or section. Use them as placeholders to tell users why something isn't there. Be sure to provide an action to add content as well.

Basic

Wrap some content in the outer .blankslate wrapper to give it the blankslate appearance.

<Blankslate>
  <h3>This is a blank slate</h3>
  <p>Use it to provide information when no dynamic content exists.</p>
</Blankslate>

With Octicons

When it helps the message, include (relevant) icons in your blank slate. Add .blankslate-icon to any .mega-octicons as the first elements in the blankslate, like so.

  <Blankslate icons={['git-commit', 'tag', 'git-branch']}>
    <h3>This is a blank slate</h3>
    <p>Use it to provide information when no dynamic content exists.</p>
  </Blankslate>

Variations

Add an additional optional class to the .blankslate to change its appearance.

<Blankslate className="blankslate-narrow">

Capped

Removes the border-radius on the top corners.

<Blankslate className="blankslate-capped">
  <h3>This is a blank slate</h3>
  <p>Use it to provide information when no dynamic content exists.</p>

Spacious

Significantly increases the vertical padding.

<Blankslate className="blankslate-spacious">
  <h3>This is a blank slate</h3>

</Blankslate>

Large
