File Thumbnail
Compact file preview row with icon, type, and size metadata.
When To Use
- Use File Thumbnail when you need a reusable atoms pattern instead of rebuilding the structure from primitives.
- Start from the simplest example that fits the task, then add decoration only when it clarifies meaning or hierarchy.
- Review the examples below to understand the tradeoffs between density, emphasis, and behavior.
When Not To Use
- Do not use File Thumbnail just because it already exists in the catalog; choose the pattern that matches the task, not the most decorative option.
- Do not keep layering options onto the pattern when a simpler component or section would be easier to understand and maintain.
Accessibility Notes
- Preserve table semantics for tabular data and avoid flattening structured information into generic divs.
- Use clear headings, summaries, and labels so assistive technologies can announce the data in context.
- Do not rely on color alone to communicate trend, status, or state in charts and metric cards.
