When to use
Use for a downloadable guide or document. Choose an email signup when access requires a subscription. Variations include a worksheet cover or a zipped resource bundle.
Hierarchy
The resource heading and cover establish the offer before topics and file metadata. Keep heading below 8 words, topics below 8 each, file details below 6 and access note below 10.
Responsive
Below 1024px columns stack as cover, description and download panel. The cover retains 3:4 proportions and the action fills its panel width.
Layout
The white section uses a 1152px max-w-6xl container, 24px px-6 sides and 64px py-16 vertical padding, increasing to 96px sm:py-24 at 640px. The lg:grid-cols-[192px_1fr_256px] grid uses 32px gap-8 and centered alignment. A 3:4 cover leads, the middle holds a heading and checklist, and a p-6 alternate-surface download panel closes the row.
States
The 44px filled action changes from neutral-900 to neutral-700 on hover; outlined actions fill neutral-50. All controls show a 2px neutral-900 keyboard outline offset by 2px.
