</section>The AI prompt
Paste this into an AI coding tool to generate the same section, then ask it to adapt the colours, text or framework to your project.
Create a clean, responsive SaaS comparison matrix table section in HTML and CSS. Requirements: - Centered section header with eyebrow and title. - Comparison table comparing 'Our Platform' vs 'Traditional Tools' vs 'Legacy Enterprise'. - Highlight our column with an indigo accent border, recommended badge, and soft tinted background. - Categorized rows (e.g. Performance & Speed, Developer Experience). - Green checkmarks for supported features, grey cross markers for missing features. - Horizontal scroll wrap for seamless mobile viewing without breaking layout. Return one HTML file with a <style> block.
How to build it, step by step
- 1
Lay out the table inside a container with overflow-x: auto for mobile responsiveness.
- 2
Style table header with clear column titles and a distinct 'Recommended' badge over your column.
- 3
Add category spacer rows spanning all 4 columns with distinct background tints.
- 4
Use green checkmark and muted cross symbols for rapid visual comparison.
Customisation tips
- Keep column widths consistent using fixed percentage or table-layout: fixed.
- Highlight your column with a continuous vertical border to anchor the reader's eye.
