Part 1: Container and grid
From the Add panel, add a container and attach to the sectionFrom the Inspector panel remove the container color
Add a 2x1 grid to the containerDrag the buttons to the container
From the Inspector panel, reposition the buttons
Still in the Inspector panel, under grid settings, remove row height, set to max content and add gaps of 20px
Reposition the container to bottom center of section
Select the container and buttons using shift, then select Stack from the floating action bar
Set spacing to 60px
Part 2: Grid and docking
Add a 2x2 grid with columns set as 1fr each and rows as min and max
From the Add panel, under Assets, add text to first cell, center align it and dock to left side and set docking as 60 px
Again from Assets, add the stack to bottom 2 cells
Set top docking and dock to right side with a 20% margin
Part 3: Layouter
From the Add panel, drag in a Layouter to the section
From the Inspector panel, align the Layouter to the center and change its width to 80%
Change the Layouter display type to bricks, add gaps
Set alignment to center
Select 1st item, then in Inspector panel set width 100% and remove the background color
From Assets, add title and center it, then remove other items
Remove color background, add a grid & a horizontal gap of 10 px to create space
From Assets, add vector art and text
Align all the elements to left and top
Change both columns’ sizing to max content, remove min height, set row to max content
Duplicate the items 3 times, then replace vector art and text for each item
