island-ui-foundation v0.2.0

Island UI Foundation

Design system starting point using SCSS, with foundational tokens, variables, & grid system for non-React based projects. This is meant to be an opinionated starting point, not a complete system.

Installation

yarn install

Development

To set gulp to watch the SCSS files for changes and to process the changes automatically into a new CSS file for the theme, simply use this command:

yarn dev

To only process the SCSS files a single time just use this command:

yarn start

This project is set-up with a tokens.json file which contains the foundational design tokens. If you make a change to the design tokens, it should be done directly to the tokens.json file. To regenerate the SCSS file src\styles\foundation\_tokens\_tokens.scss that is created from the src\styles\tokens.json file you can run this command:

yarn tokenize

If you are making a lot of changes to the tokens to iterate or test different styles, or from an external design program that rebuilds the JSON file, you can open a terminal and specifically get gulp to watch the file and regenerate the SCSS tokens file automatically on each change using this command:

yarn watcht
