+There are several different card types, each with their own configuration options. They can be categorized in terms of their function:
+
+- **Specific to a device type or service**: alarm, light, humidifier, thermostat, plant status, media control, weather forecast, shopping list, map, logbook, and calendar card
+- **Grouping other cards**: vertical stack, horizontal stack, and grid card
+- **Logic function**: conditional and entity filter card
+- **Display generic data**: sensor, history graph, statistic, statistics graph, energy, gauge, and webpage card
+- **Control devices and entities**: button and entity card
+- **Display data and control entities**: area, picture elements, and picture glance card
+
+## Card actions, features, header and footer widgets
+
+Some cards have support for [tap actions](/dashboards/actions/). These actions define what will happen when you tap or hold on an object within a card.
+
+Some cards have support for [features](/dashboards/actions/). These widgets add quick controls to the card. Supported features depend on the card and entity capabilities. Multiple features can be added to a single card.
