Subtemplates

This template makes use of three subtemplates, which are not intended to be used as standalone templates. They are: {{ribbon devices/device layout}}, {{ribbon devices/device}}, and {{ribbon devices/alt}}. To add a new other_device, modify {{ribbon devices/device}}. To add alt text for a new ribbon, modify {{ribbon devices/alt}}.
