halcyon 🌅
A Material You plugin and component library for Vite / Vue 3.
Warning This is extremely early in development.
Installation and usage
Add the package to your project:
pnpm add halcyon-vue
Load the plugin in your Vite setup:
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import { Halcyon } from 'halcyon-vue/plugin'
import theme from './theme.json'
// ...
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
// ...
Halcyon({ theme })
]
})
Import the stylesheets:
// main.ts
import 'halcyon:reset.css' // optional if you're already using a css reset
import 'halcyon:theme.css' // sets up the theme variables
import 'halcyon:base.css' // includes global styles (e.g. body)
import 'halcyon-vue/style' // includes component styles
Now you can use the components however you should wish:
<script setup>
import { HButton } from 'halcyon-vue'
const alert = (msg) => window.alert(msg) // vue why
</script>
<template>
<div>
<HButton
kind="filled"
content="Press me!"
@click="alert('yippee')"
/>
</div>
</template>
You can browse our documentation online!
Generating a Theme
You should use the Material Theme Builder to generate a theme. From there, download the JSON - you can then use the theme in Halcyon by passing it into the plugin.
Overriding the theme
The theme variables are just CSS variables, so you can replace them in your own CSS:
.this-part-is-very-red {
--halcyon-primary: #ff0000;
}
Fonts
It's not required, but you should import a couple fonts for the most accurate
experience. In particular, Roboto Flex (or Roboto if your target
doesn't support variable fonts) and Noto Sans (as a fallback font)
are used. Here's a snippet you can put into your index.html
to import Roboto Flex
and Noto Sans:
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com">
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin>
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Noto+Sans:ital,wght@0,400;0,500;0,700;1,400;1,500;1,700&family=Roboto+Flex:wght@400;500;700&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
(This snippet probably imports more than you'll need, so consider selecting the fonts on Google Fonts yourself.)
Icons
You should use unplugin-icons for Material Design icons. It's what the docs use, and it's the only thing tested with.
