@mangoweb/sass-base
The manGoweb template for sass styles employed on small to medium sized projects. It defines abstract definitions, animation keyframes, functions, mixins, a global reset as well as a couple of other utility classes.
Installation
npm install @mangoweb/sass-base
⚠️ You might want to also fix the package version so that any potential future backwards incompatibilities don't break your build. This package is generally intended for live development with the occasional BC break. Should that affect your application because you failed to fix the version, that's on you.
Usage
Basic use
If you don't wish to modify anything, just import everything:
@import '~@mangoweb/sass-base/index'
More advanced use
To gain a finer control over what and how is imported, you might want to follow these steps:
Create a
_variable.sass
file from which you can override any variable defined in~@mangoweb/sass-base/variables
.Create a
_common.sass
file:@import 'variables' @import '~@mangoweb/sass-base/common'
This allows you to define your variables before you import
sass-base
, thereby overriding its defaults.You should later import this file from all your other files (e.g. other components) in order to avoid relying on implicit importing.
Create an
index.sass
file:@import 'common' @import '~@mangoweb/sass-base/index' /* Any other components of yours */ @import 'parts/…'
Defined functions
em
Turns a (potentially unitless) number in pixels into em
Usage:
em(16)
returns1em
(based on$font-size
)em(16px)
returns1em
(based on$font-size
)em(10px)
returns.625em
(based on$font-size
)em(10px, 10px)
returns1em
where$font-size
is the second parameter which defaults to$base-font-size
, which is typically16px
.
rem
Turns a (potentially unitless) number in pixels into rem
Usage:
rem(16)
returns1rem
(based on$base-font-size
)rem(16px)
returns1rem
(based on$base-font-size
)
toScalar
Converts a dimensioned value to a scalar
line-height: toScalar(1.5em) // line-height: 1.5
Defined mixins
absolute
Usage:
+absolute(top right bottom left)
+absolute(top horizontal bottom)
+absolute(vertical horizontal)
+absolute(offset)
Examples:
+absolute(1px 2px 3px 4px)
compiles to// position: absolute; top: 1px; right: 2px; bottom: 3px; left: 4px
+absolute(1px 2px 3px)
compiles to// position: absolute; top: 1px; right: 2px; bottom: 3px; left: 2px
+absolute(1px 2px)
compiles to// position: absolute; top: 1px; right: 2px; bottom: 1px; left: 2px
+absolute(1px)
compiles to// position: absolute; top: 1px; right: 1px; bottom: 1px; left: 1px
+absolute(1px null null 2px)
compiles to// position: absolute; top: 1px; left: 2px
All the other position mixins (fixed
, relative
, sticky
) behave identically
clearFix
Just a simple clear fix
fixed

fluid
Signature: fluid($property-name, $min-viewport-width, $max-viewport-width, $min-value, $max-value)
Allows you to set a property value to a linearly interpolated value with respect to the viewport width.
Example:
.foo
+fluid(font-size, 0em, 45em, 0em, 1.5em)
media
A helper mixin for @media queries
Usage:
+media(mediaQuery [, mediaQuery]*)
foo: bar
/* … */
where mediaQuery is a sass list of one of
- string of a classic css feature query
- unitless number (will be interpreted as the pixel argument for min-width)
- number with a special unit prefix 'M' (e.g. 123Mem) which denotes that max-width is to be emitted NOTE: You never want to use this unit explicitly. Instead, use the maxWidth function for conversion. See examples below.
Examples:
+media($break480 $break768M, $break992 $break1200M)
compiles to@media (min-width: 30em) and (max-width: 47.96875em), (min-width: 62em) and (max-width: 74.96875em)
+media(123)
compiles to@media (min-width: 7.6875em)
+media(123M)
compiles to@media (max-width: 123px)
+media(123em maxWidth(456em))
compiles to@media (min-width: 123em) and (max-width: 455.96875em)
+media($break480 '(screen)', 300 maxWidth(500px), $landscape)
compiles to@media (min-width: 30em) and (screen), (min-width: 18.75em) and (max-width: 31.21875em), (orientation: landscape)
relative
See absolute
size
Usage
+size(100%) // width: 100%; height: 100%
+size(123px 456px) // width: 123px; height: 456px
sticky
