Strongcomponent

Strong importance — renders a <strong> element for text of strong importance (typically bold).

Strong importance — renders a <strong> element for text that carries strong importance, seriousness, or urgency (typically shown bold). Prefer it over a raw <strong> or <b> inside React components so the semantics and class names stay consistent.

Things to know:

• Use Strong for importance, <Emphasis> for stress emphasis (italic), and <Mark> for relevance highlighting — they are not interchangeable.
• It only sets the font weight; it inherits colour and size from the surrounding text.
• Inside <Prose> raw <strong> / <b> pick up the same styling, so Markdown-rendered bold text matches component ones.

Usage

Strong importance in body copy

import { Paragraph, Strong } from "shelving/ui";

<Paragraph>
  Press save before leaving. <Strong>Unsaved changes will be lost.</Strong>
</Paragraph>

Styling

Strong has no own theming hooks — it sets font-weight: var(--weight-strong) and inherits everything else from its surroundings.

Global tokens it reads: --weight-strong.
