This lesson

This lesson teaches Capstone: pricing layout—the ideas, syntax, and habits you need before moving on in Utility CSS.

Without a solid grasp of Capstone: pricing layout, you will repeat mistakes in Utility CSS exercises and on real pages or scripts.

You will apply Capstone: pricing layout in contexts like: Product UIs, internal tools, and teams that want rapid layout iteration without a heavy component library.

Read the lesson, edit HTML/CSS in the playground, press Run to preview, then answer the lesson MCQs.

When intermediate lessons feel comfortable and you are ready for production-style trade-offs.

Build a three-tier pricing row using only tu- utilities and token variables. No third-party framework classes.

Going deeper

In production utility-first CSS work, Capstone: pricing layout matters when documents, stylesheets, or apps must stay maintainable across teams and releases—not only in isolated demos.

Common pitfalls

Watch for copy-paste configs, skipping validation or tests, and mixing concerns (structure vs presentation vs behavior) in one layer.

Practice

Apply one technique from this lesson in the playground.
Write one interview-style sentence explaining when you would use capstone: pricing layout on a real project.

Challenge

Highlight a plan

Add tu-border in a stronger color on the middle card only.
Add a “Popular” badge with utilities (no new component file).

Done when: middle tier is visually emphasized without breaking the grid.
