CardContainer
The CardContainer class is used to group single or multiple Card elements. Each container can either be of type columns or rows, which determines the layout of the cards.
class CardContainer
Do not create CardContainer instances directly. Instead, use the create_container()
method of the Tab class to genereate them.

# Custom parameters

)
# Rows example

Examples
The following examples demonstrate how to create layouts using CardContainers and Cards.

tab = Tab(name='My Custom Tab')
# this container holds only one card, type does not matter
container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
card = container.create_card()
tab.render()

tab = Tab(name='My Custom Tab')
container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
left_card = container.create_card()
right_card = container.create_card()
tab.render()

tab = Tab(name='My Custom Tab')
top_container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
top_left_card = top_container.create_card()
top_right_card = top_container.create_card()
# this container holds only one card, type does not matter
bottom_container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
bottom_card = bottom_container.create_card()
tab.render()

tab = Tab(name='My Custom Tab')
top_container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
top_left_card = top_container.create_card()
top_right_card = top_container.create_card()
bottom_container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
bottom_left_card = bottom_container.create_card()
bottom_right_card = bottom_container.create_card()
tab.render()

tab = Tab(name='My Custom Tab')
wrapper_container = tab.create_container(type="columns")
left_container = wrapper_container.create_container(type="rows")
top_card = left_container.create_card()
bottom_card = left_container.create_card()
# this container holds only one card, type does not matter
right_container = wrapper_container.create_container(type="columns")
right_card = right_container.create_card()
tab.render()
