About

A customizable grid system, that aims to set every parameter for your grid system individually by breakpoint. Being as flexible as possible while being as lightweight as possible. The Toolbox grid is based on the CSS flexbox model.

Getting Started

You can install tfg via npm:

npm i @familieredlich/fr-toolbox-flexible-grid --save-dev

Now you import the scss file into your workflow.

the pure grid, no css reset, no testpage styles.

@import '~@familieredlich/fr-toolbox-flexible-grid/src/styles/main';

some extra styling for the testpage, also for the Grid overlay.

@import '~@familieredlich/fr-toolbox-flexible-grid/src/styles/dev';

To show a grid overlay in your dev enviroment, you need to import the js.

import '@familieredlich/fr-toolbox-flexible-grid';

now you can hit 'g' to show an overlay to make shure everything is aligned.

Since the whole package is also a local enviroment (see next chapter), and work with the css/js files in the dist folder.

Install local dev environment for tfg

Install dependencies

yarn

Run development server

yarn dev

Will open your default browser to http://localhost:8080/public

Webpack will watch for changes in the ./src directory and output the bundled assets to ./public/assets. In parellel, the development server will watch for changes in the ./public directory and live reload the browser.

Build production bundles

yarn build

Will compile, minify and auto-prefix Sass to CSS. Will Minify and uglify JavaScript and output the bundled assets to ./public/assets.

After building for production you can take the ./public directory and deploy it.

Dependencies

tgf is meant as an addition to fr-toolbox, but doesn't rely on it. So there are no dependencies.

How to use toolbox flexible Grid in conjunction with fr-toolbox

if you already use fr-toolbox, you should make shure to load tgf afterwards, and comment out the following sass-map and variable in your custom _settings.grid.scss

$toolbox-breakpoints: (
    'xs': 500px,
    'sm': 700px,
    'md': 900px,
    'lg': 1100px,
    'xl': 1300px,
    'xxl': 1700px
);

Toolbox Grid settings per breakpoint

You can also set up various grid options per breakpoint. You just have to alter the $toolbox-config map

The default is:

$toolbox-config: (
    'toolbox-grid-cols-by-bp' : (
        'xs': (
            'grid-width': 100%,

Grid Class

`.o-grid`

This is the main grid class which creates the basic grid wrapper.

Usage

Simply create a <div> element with the .o-grid class. By default the grid wrapper has a fixed width, which is defined in the configuration variable $toolbox-grid-fixed-widths.

<div class="o-grid">
    <!-- Grid Row's goes here... -->
</div>

Options/Modifiers

`.o-grid--fluid`

To disable the default fixed width

Usage

Simply add the .o-grid--fluid modifier class. This unsets the max-width property of the o-grid class. (The Grid spans over the full width).

<div class="o-grid o-grid--fluid">
    <!-- Grid Row's goes here... -->
</div>

If $toolbox-grid-fluid-breakpoint-aware-enabled is set to true, you can add the modifier class per break point, example:

<div class="o-grid o-grid--fluid@sm">
    <!-- Grid Row's goes here... -->
</div>

`.o-grid__row`

This class defines each row in the grid system and has to be the wrapper for all .o-grid__col classes.

Usage

Create a <div> element with the .o-grid__row class inside the .o-grid container. It is also possible to nest the grid by putting this class inside a .o-grid__col element. Keep in mind, if you nest a grid each grid column is now calculated on the base of the parent grid-column. That means, for example, a o-grid__col:6 container is just the half width, of the parent column container e.g. an o-grid__col:6 container.

<div class="o-grid">
    <div class="o-grid__row">
        <!-- Grid Col's goes here... -->
    </div>
</div>

Options/Modifiers

There are two modifier groups for the rows. Horizontal and vertical positioning. Each modifier overwrites the other modifiers in its group, so only one horizontal and one vertical modifier class can be used together on the same breakpoint.

Horizontal alignment

$toolbox-grid-row-alignment-horizontal-enabled has to be set to true.

`.o-grid__row--start`

Default value. Cols are positioned at the beginning of the row (justify-content: flex-start;).

<div class="o-grid__row o-grid__row--start">
    <!-- Grid Col's goes here... -->
</div>

`.o-grid__row--center`

Cols are positioned at the center of the row (justify-content: center;).

<div class="o-grid__row o-grid__row--center">
    <!-- Grid Col's goes here... -->
</div>

`.o-grid__row--end`

Cols are positioned at the end of the row (justify-content: flex-end;).

<div class="o-grid__row o-grid__row--end">
    <!-- Grid Col's goes here... -->
</div>

`.o-grid__row--around`

Cols are positioned with space before, between, and after (justify-content: space-around;).

<div class="o-grid__row o-grid__row--around">
    <!-- Grid Col's goes here... -->
</div>

adding source map to the local dev env
adding a linter to the local dev env
