Sorry, but you either have no stories or none are selected somehow.

If the problem persists, check the browser console, or the terminal you've run Storybook from.

The component failed to render properly, likely due to a configuration issue in Storybook. Here are some common causes and how you can address them:

  1. Missing Context/Providers: You can use decorators to supply specific contexts or providers, which are sometimes necessary for components to render correctly. For detailed instructions on using decorators, please visit the Decorators documentation.
  2. Misconfigured Webpack or Vite: Verify that Storybook picks up all necessary settings for loaders, plugins, and other relevant parameters. You can find step-by-step guides for configuring Webpack or Vite with Storybook.
  3. Missing Environment Variables: Your Storybook may require specific environment variables to function as intended. You can set up custom environment variables as outlined in the Environment Variables documentation.

This is a pre-release version and is not production ready. For new and ongoing projects, please refer to the latest Design System version.

For quoting blocks of content from another source within your document. Wrap <blockquote className="blockquote"> along with a <q> around any HTML as the quote.

This is a sample blockquote text to demonstrate how the component looks and functions.

Make sure the @swisspost/design-system-styles package is already present in your project or follow the installation guidelines.

To import all Design System styles:

@use '@swisspost/design-system-styles/post-compact.scss';

To import only the styles required for this component:

@use '@swisspost/design-system-styles/basics.scss';
@use '@swisspost/design-system-styles/components/blockquote.scss';

The following examples show the different characteristics of the component. These can differ in the type of visualization, the html structure, as well as when, how and why they are displayed.

To add simple quote characters around any nested text within your blockquote, you can wrap it with a

<q> tag.

This is a text example with I am a nested quote! embedded within the main content. It also contains I am a nested quote too! to demonstrate multiple nested elements.
