+### Link Cards
+
+Use the `<LinkCard>` component to link prominently to different pages.
+
+A `<LinkCard>` requires a `title` and an [`href`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#href) attribute. You can optionally include a short `description` or other link attributes such as `target`.
+
+Group multiple `<LinkCard>` components in `<CardGrid>` to display cards side-by-side when there’s enough space.
+
+```mdx
+import { LinkCard, CardGrid } from '@astrojs/starlight/components';
+
+<LinkCard
+	title="Customizing Starlight"
+	description="Learn how to make your Starlight site your own with custom styles, fonts, and more."
+	href="/guides/customization/"
+/>
+
+<CardGrid>
+	<LinkCard title="Authoring Markdown" href="/guides/authoring-content/" />
+	<LinkCard title="Components" href="/guides/components/" />
+</CardGrid>
+```
+
+The above code generates the following on the page:
+
+import { LinkCard } from '@astrojs/starlight/components';
+
+<LinkCard
+	title="Customizing Starlight"
+	description="Learn how to make your Starlight site your own with custom styles, fonts, and more."
+	href="/guides/customization/"
+/>
+
+<CardGrid>
+	<LinkCard title="Authoring Markdown" href="/guides/authoring-content/" />
+	<LinkCard title="Components" href="/guides/components/" />
