Element catalog

Element catalog

The element catalog provides a collection of HTML elements and components organized by category. This makes it easy to find exactly what you need for your project. The catalog allows you to:

  • Browse different element types grouped by functionality
  • Search for specific elements and components
  • View components from installed packages

Select an element to add it to your project. The element will be added as a child of the currently selected element or as the first child of the root element if no element is selected.

Tip

The Nordcraft element catalog contains the most commonly used HTML elements. To add an element that is not listed in the catalog, add any element, and edit its Tag under Attributes in the Right panel.
