  • Empty and Error Content Blocks

@Bronwyn Hawkins (Deactivated)

  • DJ: When would you use the error content block vs. an Alert?

    • For when it’s a part of the page that breaks.

    • Error loading part of the page.

We should be careful in using these for errors. Maybe these are better framed as expected states of the page.

Only use these for expected states of the page, but not things like server 500 errors. Errors vs. exceptions. Errors mean code blew up.

If you have something that says, “we couldn’t load your courses” it’s polite to announce that instead of finding it. instead of having them find it.

Maybe we want an “alert” flag for this component so that screen readers will announce it.

This is a content replacement. Whereas an alert is appended to a current page. So it makes sense for a 404 or a 500 page. but not a 500 response.

  • These feel branded: are the slants the same as our edX slant?

  • Are these gonna be part of the brand? Are they part of Pargon




Mailto Component




its question from my side, I am not sure where to place it hence adding in agenda
in reference to this PR: https://github.com/edx/paragon/pull/739
someone is updating the Hyperlink component to support underlined and simple styling based on props is that possible to do the same with MailTo component in same PR or do we have any plan of doing that? as in paragon we have email links now without underlines. for reference sharing this design https://www.figma.com/file/SeNpRff5HxzdpCgoD5pmlQ/Apps-and-resources-landing-page?node-id=4306%3A0
