Most of these seem possible to do with just some basic components... You will need some different css though. Mainly you will have to bascily rename all css class selectors with psc- infront

I guess you could techincally create custom html too. You could put the creating of this in the injectables, than use markdwon to utilse them would be quite compact in the views itself...

Though this is not a trivial thing to do. especcially to get some feedback back into perspective... Probably easier to just make a custom component where all that is already done 😛
