Deck Overview & Aesthetics
Decks are the container or repository for a specified number of Cards. A Deck typically addresses one topic or module of learning.
A FLIP deck is uniquely designed with micro-learning in mind. A best practice for deck development is to keep the card count at an average of 15 cards for a single topic or learning module.
Decks are elegantly limited in their design features.
- Title - The title is carried over to the top, once inside a Deck. Try and keep it to 40 characters.
- Icon - This is displayed just before the tile when inside a Deck.
- Color - You can choose from your uploaded brand colors or input a custom HEX value. The color becomes the backdrop within a Deck.
- Full-Bleed Imagery - This simply acts as an overlay to the prior options. You must still choose the prior options.
