    </n-alert>
    <n-alert title="Info" type="info">

      Something went wrong
    </n-alert>
  </n-space>
</template>
```

### Closable Alert

```vue
<template>
  <n-alert title="Dismissible" type="info" closable>
    This alert can be closed by clicking the X button
  </n-alert>
</template>
```

### Custom Icon

```vue
<template>
  <n-alert title="Custom Icon" type="info">
    <template #icon>
      <n-icon>
        <IosAirplane />
      </n-icon>
    </template>
    Alert with custom icon
  </n-alert>
</template>
```

### No Icon

<template>
  <n-alert :show-icon="false">
    Alert without icon
  </n-alert>
</template>
```

### Bordered Toggle

```vue

    <n-switch v-model:value="bordered" />
    <n-alert title="Bordered Alert" type="info" :bordered="bordered">
      Toggle border visibility
    </n-alert>

</template>

<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue'

const bordered = ref(true)
</script>
```

<template>
  <n-alert type="error" title="Warning">
    <n-marquee>
      <div style="margin-right: 64px">
        Test environment is offline again.
      </div>
    </n-marquee>
  </n-alert>
</template>
```

## Common Patterns

### Form Validation Feedback

```vue
<template>
  <n-form>
    <n-alert v-if="errors.length" type="error" title="Validation Errors" closable>
      <n-ul>
        <n-li v-for="error in errors" :key="error">
          {{ error }}
        </n-li>
      </n-ul>
    </n-alert>
  </n-form>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue'

const errors = ref(['Name is required', 'Email is invalid'])
</script>
```

### Conditional Alert Display

```vue
<template>
  <n-alert 
    v-if="showAlert" 
    :type="alertType" 
    :title="alertTitle"
    closable
    @close="showAlert = false"
  >
    {{ alertMessage }}
  </n-alert>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue'

const showAlert = ref(true)
const alertType = ref('success')
const alertTitle = ref('Success')
const alertMessage = ref('Operation completed successfully')
</script>
```

### Custom Header

```vue
<template>
  <n-alert type="warning">
    <template #header>
      <n-space align="center">
        <n-icon><WarningIcon /></n-icon>
        <span>Custom Header</span>
      </n-space>
    </template>
    Alert content with custom header
  </n-alert>
</template>
```

## Best Practices

1. **Use appropriate types**: Match alert type to message context
   - `info` for informational messages
   - `success` for positive confirmations
   - `warning` for cautionary messages
   - `error` for error states

2. **Keep messages concise**: Alert messages should be brief and actionable

3. **Use closable for non-critical alerts**: Allow users to dismiss informational alerts

4. **Provide clear titles**: Use descriptive titles to quickly convey the alert's purpose

5. **Consider accessibility**: Ensure alert content is accessible to screen readers
