Parameters

*args: TagChild | TagAttrs | CardItem = ()

full_screen: bool = False

If True, an icon will appear when hovering over the card body. Clicking the icon expands the card to fit viewport size.

Whether or not to allow the card to grow/shrink to fit a fillable container with an opinionated height (e.g., page_fillable).

class_: Optional[str] = None

Additional CSS classes for the returned Tag.

id: Optional[str] = None

Provide a unique identifier for the card or to report its full screen state to Shiny. For example, using id="my_card", you can observe the card’s full screen state with input.my_card_full_screen().
