Real content breaks beautiful mockups; design with it from day one.
Principles#
Write headlines at real length, load 20 real cards, test the 3-word and 30-word cases. Nakshora utilities (truncate, line-clamp, min-w-0) are your content-defense kit.
Applied#
- Apply it to your next feature, not a mythical redesign
- Encode the decision as a token or component
- Write one paragraph of team guidance
- Audit an existing page against the principle
