Full installation instructions in the Installation guide.

Overview

<x-aura::blockquote> renders the quote inside <figure> with the attribution in <figcaption>.

That structure is deliberate: the author's name is about the quotation, it is not part of what was said. Putting it inside <blockquote> tells a screen reader that the speaker quoted their own name.

Basic Usage

That brain of mine is something more than merely mortal, as time will show.
— Ada Lovelace
<x-aura::blockquote author="Ada Lovelace">
    That brain of mine is something more than merely mortal, as time will show.
</x-aura::blockquote>
<x-aura::blockquote author="Ada Lovelace" cite="https://example.com/letters">
    That brain of mine is something more than merely mortal.
</x-aura::blockquote>

Props

Prop Type Default Description
author string|null null Attribution, rendered as the caption.
cite string|null null URL of the source, placed on the cite attribute.

Notes

cite is metadata: browsers do not display it. If the source should be clickable, put a Link in the author slot as well.
