How to use this block

Treat the component as one production section inside a larger message system. Keep the shared classes and wrapper rules intact, then adapt the copy, imagery, and links to the send.

Use this block when...

  • Use when multiple updates need equal visual weight without becoming a full editorial newsletter.
  • Keep each update label brief so the digest still works once the columns stack on smaller clients.

Keep in mind

  • Write each update label so it makes sense independently when announced in sequence.
  • Do not rely on the numbered layout alone to communicate which update matters most.

Compatibility and rendering notes

Use these notes before moving the block into a campaign, layout system, or client handoff.

Client-specific notes

  • Gmail (Web + Mobile): Primary spacing, stack order, and CTA rendering hold up in Gmail web and mobile views.
  • Outlook Desktop (Windows): Three-column summaries can compress in Outlook desktop, so short labels and concise copy are important.
