  3. PageUp specific UI patterns • Iconography (Font icons + Illustrations)

    • Avatar • Dots • Breadcrumb • Buckets • Ratings • Steppers • Timelines • Empty states • Loading states
  4. HTML guideline • Use native HTML <a> <button> <input> <select>

    • Use semantic markup <nav> <header> <main> <section> • Use accessible markup aria, alt, role • Follow the markup from Bootstrap and GEL website
  5. CSS Approach • Transition from "semantic" approach to "functional CSS"

    colors, widths, and positions • Background colors • Flexbox utilities • Padding and margin helper https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.3/utilities/ https://hackerthemes.com/bootstrap-cheatsheet/
