🎨 Styling
As all component in this collection, you are responsible to bring style to them.
This will give you maximum freedom, still you can prevent most of potential styles leaking when needed.
Of course, as links are ubiquitous in any website, it's totally valid to style them globally with is:global
.
Semi-scoped styles inside parent (it won't effect upstream, only downstream):
<style lang="scss">
.my-parent-with-custom-links {
// Use `:global` as a localized escape hatch:
& :global(.link) {
font-weight: 700;
color: green;
}
& :global(.link.is-tel) {
background: yellow;
}
& :global(.link.is-mail) {
color: red;
}
}
</style>
-OR-
Global styles (in your layout component, for example):
<style lang="scss" is:global>
a.link {
font-weight: 700;
color: green;
}
// ...
</style>
