Using cl-sbt/card Macros in a Web Application
Introduction
The card component is a versatile and flexible container for displaying content in a neat and organized fashion. Cards can hold a variety of elements such as images, text, links, and even other components like buttons. This makes them ideal for showcasing related pieces of information, or for creating a grid of similar elements.
Bootstrap Cards
Bootstrap is a well-known front-end framework offering a range of components, one of which is the card. It allows developers to create attractive and functional card components easily.
How Bootstrap Cards Work
Bootstrap cards are mainly constructed using HTML and CSS. Bootstrap provides various classes to style and align the content within the card:
- Cards can contain multiple elements like headers, footers, and body content.
- Cards are flexible; you can add images, buttons, and other elements inside them.
- Bootstrap classes can be used to control the card's appearance and behavior, such as rounded corners, shadow, and so on.
Integrating cl-sbt/card Macros
If you're working on a Common Lisp web application and want to include Bootstrap-style cards, the cl-sbt/card macros can help. Below is an example of how to integrate this functionality into your project:
(defpackage my-web-app
(:use :cl :cl-sbt/card)
(:export :generate-card-page))
(in-package :my-web-app)
(defun generate-card-page ()
"Generates an HTML page featuring a card using cl-sbt/card macros."
(spinneret:with-html-string
(:html
(:head
(:title "Card Example")
;; Include Bootstrap CSS here
)
(:body
(:h1 "Card Example")
(card (:title "Card Title" :content "This is the content of the card."))
;; Include Bootstrap JavaScript initialization script here
))))
