in your assets.@import "settings"; @import "../../node_modules/bullets-sass/scss/style"; @include bullets-grid; @include bullets-align; @include bullets-colour; @include bullets-touch; @include bullets-type; @include bullets-links; @include bullets-inputs; @include bullets-button; @include bullets-image; @include bullets-embed; @include bullets-forms; @include bullets-table;
Create a settings file (copy from the package) and save as
_settings.scss
and place in the same location as yourstyle.scss
file.Import the mixins into the settings file, place this at the top.
@import "../../node_modules/bullets-sass/scss/mixins";
Basic Docs
- Get started by tweaking the settings in settings.scss
- You can remove or add the mixins in the style.scss file to only include what you need.
- Bullets has a 12 column grid with column classes for mobile, tablet and desktop, with the breakpoints of these controllable seperate to your media queries (though using the mqs by default).
Getting Started With Gulp
- Run
npm update --save-dev
to update package.json dependencies to the latest and download the latest node modules. - Run
gulp
to confirm everything is working
Contribute
If you want to contribute - feel free. All pull requests considered. However, the aim of Bullets is to be light weight and skinny, so feature requests will always bare this in mind.
Grid
The Bullets grid is flexbox based, with browser support extended through Gulp. The grid is a tool and is as lightweight as possible. You should strongly consider when/how you are using it.
Mark-up
<div class="row">
<div class="column column-m-12 column-t-6 column-d-4">
</div>
<div class="column column-m-12 column-t-6 column-d-4">
</div>
<div class="column column-m-12 column-t-6 column-d-4">
</div>
</div>
Although the class names suggest "m" mobile, "t" tablet and "d" desktop, you should approach the use of the grid in a device agnostic manner.
CSS Grid
Bullets comes with a helper for creating CSS Grids. You should include the mixin within a container class, for example:
.page {
@include bullets-css-grid($column-min, $column-max, $row-min, $row-max, $grid-gap);
}
You shouldn't try to use one container to handle all your grids, or try to recreate a 12 column grid using CSS grid. Instead, use the mixin to help you create containers on parent elements such as whole pages. The Bullets CSS Grid auto-fills.
Variables The mixin affects the following variables so you can define grid containers on the fly.
$column-min: 200px;
$column-max: 12fr;
$row-min: 150px;
$row-max: auto;
$grid-gap: 1rem;
To control the placement of elements within the grid, use the grid-column
and grid-row
properties. For example:
.header {
grid-column: span 3;
}
This declaration tells the header to span three columns. Equally:
.article {
grid-row: span 4;
}
..Tells the article to span four rows.
There are no pre-defined columns with CSS Grid as instead the layout of the columns is primarily defined by the parent.
Constrain width
By default, Bullets is full width. Use the container class to constrain width.
<div class="container">
<!-- grid -->
</div>
If you want to save mark-up, you can add it to the row
element.
Alignment
Use the row modifier classes to change alignment.
Horizontal:.row--justified
- columns are evenly distributed across the row, first item is on the start, last at the end of the row.row--spaced
- columns are evenly distributed across the row, with equal space around them.row--end
- columns are pushed towards the end of the row.row--center
- columns are aligned to the center of the row
Vertical:.row--middle
- columns are vertically aligned middle.row--bottom
- columns are vertically aligned bottom.row--top
- columns are vertically aligned top
Offset
You can use column offsets to offset a column by a column amount. For example:
<div class="column-t-4 column-t-offset-1 column">
This will offset the column on tablet devices by one column, increasing spacing between columns.
### Flex Column
<div class="column-t-4 column column--flex">
This will turn the column into a flex displayed column to allow for equal height divs within the columns.
Buttons
Bullets comes with a basic button component. You can adjust settings, including whether or not the button has a radius, in settings.scss
.
Markup
<button class="button">
Button text
</button>
Strictly speaking, buttons should be buttons and links should be links. However, you can add the .button
class to a link too.
Hollow
Make a button hollow by adding the .button--hollow
class.
Flexible Embeds
Bullets comes with an .embed
class. Add this to a <div>
containing a video iframe or other object, and it will behave responsively. You may need to tweak to padding of .embed
depending on aspect ratio.
Inputs
Bullets comes with some basic input styling.
