Examples

Gap

The spacing between children can be adjusted using the gap prop.

<Columns gap="xxlarge">
  <Stack gap="small">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
  <Stack gap="medium">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
  <Stack gap="large">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
  <Stack gap="xlarge">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
</Columns>

Horizontal alignment

Items can be aligned horizontally using the align prop.

<Stack gap="medium" dividers>
  <Stack gap="small" align="left">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder label="left" width={128} />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
  <Stack gap="small" align="center">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder label="center" width={128} />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
  <Stack gap="small" align="right">
    <Placeholder />
    <Placeholder label="right" width={128} />
    <Placeholder />
  </Stack>
</Stack>

Dividers

Use the dividers property to render a Divider between each element in the Stack.

<Stack gap="medium" dividers>
  <Text>First item</Text>
  <Text>Second item</Text>
  <Text>Third item</Text>
</Stack>

Nesting

Nest Stack components to create more complex white space rules.

<Stack gap="xlarge">
  <Heading level="4">Heading</Heading>
  <Stack gap="small">
    <Text>Line 1</Text>
    <Text>Line 2</Text>
    <Text>Line 3</Text>
  </Stack>
  <Stack gap="small">
    <Text>Line 1</Text>
    <Text>Line 2</Text>
    <Text>Line 3</Text>
  </Stack>
</Stack>

Props

Stack props also include Box props and are not listed here (excludes display, className, alignItems, flexDirection, justifyContent and flexWrap).

Extra props are also passed into the underlying Box component.
