Course Sidebar — Background Variants

Hover section headers and subtopic links in each panel. Option A matches the reference mock most closely. Production SCSS will use Option A unless you request a switch.

Option AReference-aligned — hover only
Option BChip-style — default fill on all rows
Option CHybrid — flat headers, chip links
How to choose: A = closest to reference image (no default backgrounds). B = strongest click affordance (your original background-color request). C = compromise — clean section headers, tactile subtopic links. Open this file in a browser: preview/sidebar-bg-variants.html
