DressCode - React component library

DressCode is SFL's own take on component libraries, implemented using React.

About DressCode

DressCode is an attempt to use the latest and the best CSS has to offer today and stay as close to HTML5 semantics and APIs as possible when designing React components.

Demo

All components have corresponding StoryBook files. To view and play around with available components you can run StoryBook locally (we are working on creating a hosted version):

# clone the repo
git clone git@github.com:sflpro/dresscode.git

# move inside the project directory
cd ./dresscode

# install dependencies
npm ci

# run storybook server
npm run storybook

Architecture

DressCode is a collection of raw JS and CSS files that are not bundled or transpiled (except JSX to ES5 transpilation). This means that the build system on the user's side should be configured respectively to make needed transpilations and conversions.

React and JS

The library is basically a collection of React components with heavy usage of React Hooks.

CSS

All configuration for styles is done via CSS custom properties. The library implies usage of postcss and postcss-preset-env to enable next-gen CSS features.

Usage

To use any of components, you need to first import the JS module:

import { Button } from '@sflpro/dresscode/lib/Button';

export default function HelloWorld() {
  return (
    <Button>Click me!</Button>
  );
}

The @sflpro/dresscode/lib/Button module will itself import @sflpro/dresscode/lib/Button/button.css for styling, which means you have to configure your bundler to support .css imports. It's also highly recommended to add CSS Modules to your build pipeline to avoid naming collisions.

Here is an example configuration for webpack:

{
  test: /\.(css)$/,
  use: [
    {
      loader: MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,
    },
    {
      loader: 'css-loader',
      options: {
        importLoaders: 1,
        modules: true,
        localIdentName: '[name]__[local]___[hash:base64:5]',
      },
    },
    {
      loader: 'postcss-loader',
      options: {
        config: {
          path: `${__dirname}/postcss.config.js`,
        },
      },
    },
  ],
}

And here is an example of PostCSS config:

module.exports = {
  plugins: {
    'postcss-mixins': {
      mixinsFiles: [
        'node_modules/@sflpro/dresscode/lib/mixins/grid.css',
        'node_modules/@sflpro/dresscode/lib/mixins/typography.css',
        'node_modules/@sflpro/dresscode/lib/fonts.css',
        './static/assets/css/customMixins.css',
      ],
    },
    'postcss-preset-env': {
      importFrom: [
        'node_modules/@sflpro/dresscode/lib/defaults.css',
        './static/assets/css/colorScheme.css',
        './static/assets/css/defaults.css',
        './static/assets/css/customMedia.css',
        './static/assets/css/main.css',
      ],
      features: {
        'nesting-rules': true,
        'custom-properties': {
          preserve: false,
        },
        'custom-media-queries': true,
      },
    },
  },
};

defaults.css, colorScheme.css and defaults.css provide CSS custom property globals, via which theme configuration is done.

:root {
  --primary-color: var(--violet-300);
  --primary-color-light: var(--violet-100);
  --primary-color-dark: var(--violet-400);

  --success-color: var(--green-300);
  --warning-color: var(--yellow-300);
  --error-color: var(--red-300);
  --error-color-dark: var(--red-400);

  --text-default-color: var(--neutral-900);

  ...
}
