# Card Use a card on an overview page to link to an article page, such as a news article, a job vacancy, or a search result. The card typically includes the title, introduction, and an image of the content. The link is mandatory. ## Guidelines - The title of a card is a link within a heading. The same guidelines as for regular [links](/docs/components-navigation-link--docs) and [headings](/docs/components-text-heading--docs) apply here. The link is active across the entire area of the card. - A card needs more content than just a title. Supplement this with textual and/or visual content. - Place the text in a regular paragraph. Only use the smallest text size for a tagline or date. - This component may not be the best option if the content does not represent a detailed page. For referencing a thematic page, use a [top task link](/docs/components-navigation-top-task-link--docs). You can also use a [regular link](/docs/components-navigation-link--docs). ### Screen readers With a screen reader, you can navigate using headings and links in a document. The title of a card is a link within a heading, allowing you to utilize both navigation methods. A screen reader reads the title first, followed by the rest of the content. ### Using links with routing libraries Check out the [developer guide](/docs/docs-developer-guide-routing-libraries--docs) on how to integrate links with external routing libraries.
