When to use
Use for a featured grade, rank or qualification with provenance. Pick badges-tag-groups for classification without a focal figure. Variations: use a rank number instead of a grade, show an expiry date, or replace one tag with a level descriptor.
Hierarchy
The grade figure and Credential name lead; Issuer name and explicit Verified wording follow. Three standard outline tags describe skill, level and category. The footer has Issued Mar 14 and a 12px mono CR-1042 identifier. Credential name up to 3 words, issuer up to 3, tags up to 2.
Responsive
At 640px only the width grows from 288px to 320px. The 64px plate stays beside text that may wrap, while tags wrap with 6px gaps. The footer remains a two-ended row.
Layout
A 288px (w-72) card expands to 320px (sm:w-80) at 640px, with 20px (p-5) padding, a 1px neutral-200 border and 8px radius. A header row places a nonshrinking 64px square plate 16px from a flexible text column. The plate uses an 8px radius and 1px neutral-900 border, with a 24px semibold grade over a 12px Grade caption. The text column has a 16px semibold name, 14px issuer and standard check badge. Tags wrap with 6px gaps after 16px; a divided footer follows after 16px with 12px top padding.
States
Static text and glyphs, with no hover, focus, open, selected or disabled behaviour. Meaning is carried by labels and shapes as well as neutral fill.
