Empty states

Empty states are used when there is no data to show. Ideally they orient the user by providing feedback based on the the user’s last interaction or communicate the benefits of a feature. When appropriate, they should explain the next steps the user should take and provide guidance with a clear call-to-action.

Used when a user hasn’t interacted with a feature yet.

If the user can take an action to fix the situation, it's best to draw attention to it, explain next steps, and provide a call-to-action.

<div class="s-empty-state wmx4 p48">
@Svg.Spot.EmptyXL.With("mb24")
<p>Why is this blank? Explain it.</p>
<a class="s-btn s-btn__filled">Call to action</a>
</div>

If the user can’t take an action to fix the situation, it’s more appropriate to set expectations.

@Svg.Spot.EmptyXL.With("mb24")
