View entry

Introduction

Section titled “Introduction”

ViewEntry is the escape hatch for custom HTML inside an infolist. Supply markup with .view(...) or .content(...) (aliases). Content is not auto-escaped — sanitize untrusted data yourself.

Reach for ViewEntry when no typed entry fits — counters, custom badges, or small composed HTML blocks that still need an accessible label. Shared Entry chrome (label, helper, hidden label) still wraps the custom markup in the usual stacked entry shell.
