  • Use thickness over 5px for subtle designs
  • Mix too many divider styles on one page
  • Forget to test color contrast in light/dark modes

💡 Tips & Tricks

  • Decorative Headers: Combine icon divider with heading blocks
  • Responsive Width: Use percentage-based width for mobile-friendly dividers
  • Color Harmony: Match divider color to nearby elements for cohesion
  • Vertical Spacing: Use margin controls to create perfect spacing rhythm
