# Text-only Collection List

The Text-Only Collection List section displays your collections as a simple, clean list of clickable text links. This minimalist approach puts the focus on your collection names, making it easy for customers to quickly browse and navigate to different product categories without visual distractions.

### Tips

* Use this section when you want a clean, minimal navigation style that doesn't compete with other visual elements on your page.
* Center alignment works well for a balanced, symmetrical look, while left alignment creates a more traditional navigation feel.
* Choose separators that match your brand - commas for a professional look, or decorative symbols for a more playful style.
* This section automatically uses different text sizes and alignments for desktop and mobile, so you can optimize the experience for each device type.
