Developer reference
Image-led hero with centred framing and left-aligned body copy for richer launch or announcement sends.
Tags: hero · announcement · launch · copy-led
Rendering screenshot
Preview frame reflects current component rendering and real spacing proportions for production email QA.
Live preview
This preview is rendered from compiled HTML output so you can inspect the actual email structure, not a static mock-up.
Client support
Rendering support notes across major email clients.
| Client | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gmail (Web + Mobile) | Tested | Primary spacing, stack order, and CTA rendering stay stable in Gmail web and mobile views. |
| Outlook Desktop (Windows) | Partial | Hero copy and CTA remain stable, though Outlook may flatten some of the supporting visual polish. |
| Apple Mail (macOS + iOS) | Tested | No additional notes. |
| Yahoo Mail | Tested | No additional notes. |
Related blocks

Source code
The source and compiled HTML shown below map directly to the rendered preview above. This keeps preview, MJML, and HTML handoff output aligned.
Snippet assembly: place this block inside the same <mj-body> as your other snippets, then stack sections in send order.
Component block only. Use this when assembling an email from multiple reusable sections inside a project that already includes the shared MJML classes.
