@ac-ui/design-system

A SCSS design system based on Bootstrap, to provide styling and theming to all Avenue Code products

TODO

1. Set variables to all be !default to inherit any product overrides
2. Add editor config files
3. Add linting config files
4. Lint staged

Installation

1. Install as a npm dependency npm i @ac-ui/design-system.git
2. Use within your SCSS
   • Want settings, mixins, extends, with no classes?
     • @import "~@ac-ui/design-system/src/base";
   • Want access to Bootstrap's grid classes?
     • No need to import the required partial!
     • @import "~@ac-ui/design-system/src/bridge/grid";
   • Want to load everything? Please reconsider.
     • @import "~@ac-ui/design-system/src";
3. How about just the styles needed to make the page pretty?
   • Its hard to say for sure just what you'll need on a page, so @ac-ui provides some utility classes and general stylings
   • @import "~@ac-ui/design-system/src/page";

How do variables get determined?

• All variables should be declared in the src/_theme.scss file
• When imported in to a Product, Product variables cascade into Theme Variables
• Theme variables cascade into Bootstrap variables

Overview

• src/index -> Entry file into all component, helper, and utility styles
• src/page -> Baseline page style, contains css reset, and utility classes
• src/fonts -> Baseline font-family, contains css with font-faces styles.
• src/theme -> Baseline theme variables. Product implementation can override.
• src/bridge/${FILE_NAME} -> Act as a bridge file to Bootstrap, add pertinent styles
  • Each bridge file loads AC-UI Variables, and has access to all Mixins/Functions/Variables
