CtaBlock

Install and import

CtaBlock is in @dovetail-ds/react. Install it with React, if you haven't:

Guidelines

The close of a page: one ask and its buttons, on the brand fill by default. With media the copy sits beside an illustration or product shot.

Use it when

• The last block on a page.

Don't use it when

• Mid-page. A call to action before the argument is made reads as pressure.

Example

<CtaBlock
  title="Ship your brand, not ours"
  lead="Free while you evaluate."
  actions={<><Button>Start free</Button><Button variant="secondary">Talk to us</Button></>}
/>

Stacking blocks

Blocks are Sections, so a page is a list of them. Alternate tone (base, subtle, base, brand) so one band ends where the next begins, keep one HeroBlock at the top and one CtaBlock at the end, and let everything between be the argument. Pass dark to scope dark mode to a single block.

Title size

Set titleSize to move the title along the type scale, from display-lg down to heading-md. It defaults to heading-lg. Only its size changes: the heading level stays what the block renders.

Tokens

Reads the section, typography and card tokens through Section, Heading and Text; it has none of its own. Retheme it by retheming those.

Accessibility

Each block is a <section>. Give the page one h1 (the HeroBlock's title) and let every other block's title be an h2, which is what they render.

Props

The typed contract, from CtaBlock.d.ts.

Tokens it reads

Every custom property CtaBlock.jsx resolves, read from the source: 1 semantic. Component tier first, because that is the one to reach for.

• semantic Shared roles. Override one and everything using that role moves with it.

Source

React only, no dependencies, every value a token.
