# layout.item

One entry in a layout.list

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

## Example

```tsx
<Layout intent="layout.item">
  …
</Layout>
```

## Choosing between neighbours

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

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| One entry in a layout.list | `layout.item` (this page) |
| A term beside what it means: a prop, a token, a rule | [`layout.term`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/term.md) |
| A situation beside the intent it calls for | [`layout.situation`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/situation.md) |
| A standalone box that is not in a list | [`layout.panel`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/panel.md) |
| One entry in a list of things (rather than [`layout.fact`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/fact.md)) | `layout.item` (this page) |
| One record in a list someone acts on (rather than [`layout.point`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/point.md)) | `layout.item` (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.

- Built from: [`arrange.stack`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#arrange-stack)
- Used to build: [`layout.term`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/term.md), [`layout.situation`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/situation.md)

## 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.item 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.

- [`arrange.stack`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#arrange-stack) — Children in a column, free to shrink inside a row or grid

  ```
  flex min-w-0 flex-col
  ```

- `layout.item` (this page) — One entry in a layout.list

  ```
  gap-1 py-3
  ```

Final classes

```
flex min-w-0 flex-col gap-1 py-3
```
