# Quick Link Tiles block

> Compact icon-and-title link card grid, no description text, built on ReUI Frame

Responsive grid of clickable cards, each a link with a top icon and title only and no body copy, with hover and focus-ring states. Uses ReUI Frame and FramePanel. For category tiles, quick-link menus, dashboard navigation, and feature shortcuts.

- Type: Pro block
- Category: [Card](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/card.md)
- Page: https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/card/card-12
- MCP: `get_block("card-12")`
- Built with: Frame
- Installs with a ReUI Pro or Ultimate license; setup: https://web.dev.reui.io/docs/license-setup

## Best for

Whole card links holding only an icon and a title, 6 finance shortcuts with hover and focus ring states

## Agent notes

- Replace `CARDS` in data.tsx; each shortcut's `href` is a hash anchor such as #ledger, so point it at your routes
- `CardItem` wraps the panel in a plain anchor; swap it for your router's link component to keep client navigation

## When not to use

- Link tiles that add an icon label header band and a summary under the title: use [Linked Metric Tiles](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/card/card-26.md) (`get_block("card-26")`)
- A blank view that explains missing data and offers first step buttons: use the [Empty State blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/empty-state.md)

## Install

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add @reui/card-12
```

## About Card blocks

### When to use

- Rows and grids of KPI tiles, each a value and a label with an optional trend badge or icon
- Grids of small linked cards for features, setup steps, guides, integrations or partner logos
- One record or offer per card: a profile, applicant, delivery, meeting, job, asset price or promo

### When not to use

- A metric panel with a progress bar, a segmented gauge or supporting rows under the total: use the [Stats blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/stats.md)
- A KPI whose trend over time is plotted, with a period switcher or tooltips: use the [Area Chart blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/chart/area-chart.md)
- A whole overview page: a header, a row of KPI tiles, then a work list or trend panel: use the [Dashboard blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/dashboard.md)

### Agent notes

- Every block centers itself in a padded `min-h-svh` wrapper in page.tsx or its root component; remove it when the card goes inside your own page

Every ReUI item has a twin like this one; the index is https://web.dev.reui.io/llms.txt. Agents with the ReUI MCP (https://web.dev.reui.io/docs/mcp) get the same guidance from the getters named above.
