Simple-callout NPM

Simple Callout

Version Size

A simple, style-agnostic callout box that can be shown and hidden from any position.

Installation & usage

Install simple-callout with Bower

$ bower install simple-callout --save

Import it into the <head> of your page

<link rel="import" href="/bower_components/simple-callout/simple-callout.html">

Then use simple-callout in your project

<simple-callout arrow="top left">
  <span>My callout contents</span>
</simple-callout>

To ensure that the content inside the callout is layered on top of the callout's arrow, always use elements rather than just text nodes (eg: <span>text</span> instead of text);

Polyfills for cross-browser support

Simple callout relies on emerging standards, and you will need to include polyfills for cross-browser support:

Web Components Lite for all non-chrome browsers
A Promise polyfill, like es6-promise, for IE 10 & 11 support.

<script src="/bower_components/webcomponentsjs/webcomponents-lite.js"></script>
