Panels
A panel is a simple, helpful Foundation component that enables you to outline sections of your page easily. This allows you to view your page sections as you add content to them, or add emphasis to a section. The width is controlled by the grid columns you put them inside.
This is a regular panel.
It has an easy to override visual style, and is appropriately subdued.
This is a callout panel.
It's a little ostentatious, but useful for important content.
Basic
You can create a panel using minimal markup.
HTML
<divclass="panel"><h5>This is a regular panel.</h5><p>It has an easy to override visual style, and is appropriately subdued.</p></div>Rendered HTML

Customize with Sass
Panels can be easily customized using our Sass variables.

You can create your own panels using our Sass mixins.
Basic

SCSS
.custom-panel {@include panel();}HTML
<divclass="custom-panel">Custom panel content goes here</div>Advanced
You can further customize your panels using the provided options in thepanel() mixin:
SCSS
.custom-panel {@include panel( // Sets the panel background color. Default: $panel-pg $bg:orange, // Sets the panel padding amount. Default: $panel-padding $padding:20px, // Sets the font color based on the darkness of the bg & resets header line-heights for panels. Default: $panel-header-adjust $adjust:true );}HTML
<divclass="custom-panel">Custom panel content with options goes here</div>Sass Errors?
