Featured content
Highlight featured blog posts (e.g. announcements), publications, and events. Featured pages are also known as sticky pages.
The Featured widget is similar to the Pages widget, but with a focus on featured content rather than recent content.

The featured.md
section in the demo uses the Featured widget.
Edit the front matter of a section to add the Featured widget and personalize its options such as the view:
widget: featured
headless: true # This file represents a page section.
# ... Put Your Section Options Here (title etc.) ...
content:
# Page type to display. E.g. post, event, or publication.
page_type: publication
# Choose how much pages you would like to display (0 = all pages)
count: 0
# Page order. Descending (desc) or ascending (asc) date.
order: desc
# Optionally filter posts by a taxonomy term.
filters:
tag: ''
category: ''
publication_type: ''
design:
# Toggle between the various page layout types.
# 1 = List
# 2 = Compact
# 3 = Card
