The {{curly bracket/glyph}} template ({{brace/glyph}} for short) gives the HTML glyphs needed by the {{curly bracket}} template ({{brace}} for short).

Glyphs needed to make vertical curly brackets (braces) in HTML+CSS:

• curly brackets, or braces: { and },

• Left curly bracket upper hook: U+23A7 ⎧
• Left curly bracket middle piece: U+23A8 ⎨
• Left curly bracket lower hook: U+23A9 ⎩

• Right curly bracket upper hook: U+23AB ⎫
• Right curly bracket middle piece: U+23AC ⎬
• Right curly bracket lower hook: U+23AD ⎭

• Curly bracket extension: U+23AA ⎪

• Upper left or lower right curly bracket section: U+23B0 ⎰
• Upper right or lower left curly bracket section: U+23B1 ⎱

Glyphs needed to make horizontal curly brackets (braces) in HTML+CSS:

• Top curly bracket U+23DE ⏞ (not supported)

<span style="{{transform-rotate|90}}">{</span> yields a top curly bracket   {

• Bottom curly bracket U+23DF ⏟ (not supported)

<span style="{{transform-rotate|90}}">}</span> yields a bottom curly bracket   }

To get horizontal curly brackets, we just have to build a left or right vertical curly bracket (of any size) with {{brace}} and wrap a left brace (a right brace) into

<span style="{{transform-rotate|90}}"> ... </span>

to get an overbrace (an underbrace) of same size.

Usage

{{brace/glyph|part}}

where part is from

• l: whole left brace {
• r: whole right brace }

• ul: upper left ⎧
• ml: middle left ⎨
• ll: lower left ⎩
• ur: upper right ⎫
• mr: middle right ⎬
• lr: lower right ⎭

• ve: vertical extension ⎪

• /: rising half brace ⎰
• \: falling half brace ⎱
