Best practices

  • Check contrast after changing color schemes so text and controls remain easy to read.
  • Adjust layout changes alongside neighboring sections so page rhythm stays consistent.
  • Start with the structural settings first, then refine decorative styling after the layout feels settled.
  • Preview the section with realistic content length to catch spacing and wrapping issues early.
