A block of one, two, or three articles with a multicolumn layout

Description

With block_articles(), we can create a single- or multi-column layout of articles. The articles are responsive to the screen width, so side-by-side articles will collapse and any of the optional images will resize accordingly. The function can accept one to three article() calls, each with varying amounts of text and imagery. Like all ⁠block_*()⁠ functions, block_articles() must be placed inside of blocks() and the resultant blocks object can be provided to the body, header, or footer arguments of compose_email().

Usage

block_articles(...)

Arguments

...	One, two, or three calls to article().

Examples

# Create a block of three, side-by-side
# articles with three `article()`
# calls inside of `block_articles()`,
# itself placed in `blocks()`
email <-
