# layout.meta

A line of small facts about an item: time, author, counts

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

## Example

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

## Choosing between neighbours

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

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| A line of small facts about an item: time, author, counts | `layout.meta` (this page) |
| Commands | [`layout.actions`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/actions.md) |
| Labelled facts about the subject of a page | [`layout.facts`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/facts.md) |

## 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.meta 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.row`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#arrange-row) — Children in a wrapping row

  ```
  flex flex-row flex-wrap items-center
  ```

- `layout.meta` (this page) — A line of small facts about an item: time, author, counts

  ```
  gap-x-3 gap-y-1 text-sm text-muted-foreground
  ```

Final classes

```
flex flex-row flex-wrap items-center gap-x-3 gap-y-1 text-sm
