# layout.intro

The heading and short text that introduce a section, above its content: a section title and its lead, a block of cards’ introduction

Component: [`<Layout>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/layout.md) · Renders: `<div>` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md) · Comes from: starter

## Example

```tsx
<Layout intent="layout.section">
  <Layout intent="layout.intro">
    <Text intent="heading.section">Plans</Text>
    <Text intent="text.lead">Start free and upgrade when your team grows.</Text>
  </Layout>
  <Layout intent="layout.collection">…</Layout>
</Layout>
```

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| The heading and short text that introduce a section, above its content: a section title and its lead, a block of cards’ introduction | `layout.intro` (this page) |
| A title with its buttons at the end of the line | [`layout.headline`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/headline.md) |
| The heading and text that introduce a section (rather than [`layout.page`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/page.md)) | `layout.intro` (this page) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.

How layout.intro resolves, and its definition

Each layer adds to the one before it; a later class wins over an earlier one that sets the same thing.

  ```

- `layout.intro` (this page) — The heading and short text that introduce a section, above its content: a section title and its lead, a block of cards’ introduction
