Company History RowsFREE

About70: Company History Rows

A company story told as hairline rows keyed by a light year figure, set against a media column that sticks while they scroll and stacks an image tile floating a live growth metric over a captioned photograph.

Installation

Radix flavor

npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r/about70"

Base UI flavor

npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r-base/about70"

This installs the block to components/beste/block/about70.tsx, the stats16 growth piece it floats on the tile (installed to components/beste/piece/stats16.tsx), and the badge23 component it uses for the eyebrow.

Quick start

The installed file exports about70Demo alongside the block: the exact props behind the preview above. Spread it to get a working about section in one line.

import { About70, about70Demo } from "@/components/beste/block/about70";

export default function AboutPage() {
  return <About70 {...about70Demo} />;
}

Then replace the demo with your own props. Written out, a trimmed setup looks like this:

import { About70 } from "@/components/beste/block/about70";
import { Stats16 } from "@/components/beste/piece/stats16";

export default function AboutPage() {
  return (
    <About70
      badge={{ label: "How we got here" }}
      heading="Six years, one problem, and a lot of very long Tuesdays"
      description="We started by sitting behind a reception desk for a fortnight."
      milestones={[
        {
          year: "2020",
          title: "A fortnight behind the desk",
          description: "Ten working days doing the receptionist's job badly, and a list of forty problems.",
          marker: "The beginning",
        },
        {
          year: "2021",
          title: "The first booking anyone else made",
          description: "One clinic, one room, and a scheduler that only avoided double-bookings.",
        },
      ]}
      closing="We are eighteen people, and all of them take support shifts."
      media={
        <Stats16
          label="Appointments booked"
          value="1,284"
          delta="12.4%"
          direction="up"
          caption="every month, across eleven practices"
          bars={[12, 21, 30, 38, 47, 61, 72, 86]}
        />
      }
      image={{ src: "/backdrops/blue.jpg", alt: "Soft blue gradient backdrop" }}
      mediaCaption="One bar for each year on this page."
      photo={{
        image: { src: "/clinic/corridor.jpg", alt: "Two colleagues in a clinic corridor" },
        caption: "Bristol, the fortnight that started it",
      }}
    />
  );
}

Behavior notes

• The media column is lg:sticky lg:top-24 lg:self-start. The self-start is required: without it the column stretches to the full grid row height and sticky positioning has nothing to travel within.
• top-24 assumes a fixed header of roughly six rem. Adjust it to match your own navbar, otherwise the tile slides under it.
• Sticky is lg and above only. On smaller screens the media column scrolls normally and lands after the milestones, since a sticky tile has nowhere to travel in a single-column layout.
• marker is optional per milestone and is meant for the two or three rows worth labelling, for example the first and the most recent. Marking every row removes the emphasis it exists to create.
• The year column is a fixed 7rem track from sm up. Below sm the grid collapses and the year stacks above the title.
• Years use tabular-nums, so the column stays optically aligned even with different digits.
• The photograph is a real figure with a figcaption, unlike the media tile above it whose caption is a plain paragraph. The photo is content, the tile is illustration.
• Milestone rows use border-t with last:border-b, closing the timeline at the bottom, and closing sits outside those rules so it reads as an author's note.
