Around headings -- more space above headings and less space after headings so there is clear separation between the content above the heading and closer proximity with the content below the heading.
Unfortunately this issue as well as the tip above do not have concrete information on what to do. I want to avoid a long back and forth with this, so how much space before and after would be preferred? 3rem before and 1rem after? I can try to make it visually pleasing, but a designer should have a better feel for spacing.
Lists and their introductory paragraph. I prefer the default to be like https://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Style#listspace We should also have a class for cases where the list should be separated from the paragraph above it.
This always confuses me personally, I don’t know when to use what style and when they are on the same page it looks broken or cluttered.
I’d prefer if we used one of the existing boxes for calling out lists that have a heading as they are then clearly labeled using a head element and potentially aria-labelled-by.
Happy to discuss in a separate thread or acting on a provided design where the spacing is defined in a visually pleasing way.
