Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

LCS dySTYLE

LCS dySTYLE is a dynamic, JavaScript-based CSS management library. It enables developers to apply complex, responsive, and custom styles directly through HTML class names, eliminating the need for static CSS files. This lightweight and flexible library supports pseudo-elements, sibling and child selectors, media queries, and direct style properties — all using class names.

Features

  • Dynamic Styling: Apply CSS styles dynamically with a structured class name syntax, reducing the need for external CSS files.
  • Multi Styling: Combine multiple CSS properties and values in a single class name for concise styling.
  • Shortcut Patterns: Use shortened syntax for common properties to streamline styling.
  • Responsive Support: Embed media queries in class names for responsive designs.
  • Advanced Selectors: Style sibling, child, and type-based elements directly through class names.
  • Pseudo-Classes and Pseudo-Elements: Use :hover, :focus, ::before, and ::after styles effortlessly.
  • Customizable Control: Use data-dystyle="false" to exclude specific elements or the entire body from dySTYLE processing.

Installation

You can install LCS dySTYLE via npm:

npm install lcs_dystyle

Or clone the repository from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/lcs_dystyle/lcs_dystyle.git

Then, include the script in your HTML:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/lcs_dystyle/dist/ld.min.js"></script>

Usage

Add the lcs prefix to your class names to dynamically apply styles. LCS dySTYLE interprets the class names as CSS rules, allowing direct styling through naming conventions.

Example

<!-- Basic style application -->
<div class="lcsBackgroundColor_red"></div>

<!-- Multi style application -->
<div class="lcsBackgroundColor.PaddingTop_red.20px">Multi Styling Example</div>

<!-- Shortcut pattern -->
<div class="lcsBGC_lightblue">Light Blue Background using Shortcut</div>

<!-- Responsive styling -->
<div class="lcsMQ_MaxWidth600PX_FontSize_14px">Responsive Font Size</div>

<!-- Pseudo-element styling (COMING SOON) -->
<div class="lcsBefore_BackgroundColor_red">Pseudo-element Example</div>

<!-- Advanced selectors (COMING SOON) -->
<ul>
  <li class="lcsSibling_BackgroundColor_lightblue">List Item with Sibling Styling</li>
</ul>

Disabling dySTYLE on Specific Elements

To disable dySTYLE on specific elements or the entire body, use the data-dystyle="false" attribute:

<!-- Disables dySTYLE on this div -->
<div data-dystyle="false" class="lcsBackgroundColor_red">This will not be styled by dySTYLE.</div>

<!-- Disables dySTYLE on the entire body -->
<body data-dystyle="false">
  <!-- All elements inside the body will not be styled by dySTYLE -->
</body>

Class Name Structure

Class names are parsed by LCS dySTYLE and converted to CSS rules. Use the following structure to construct class names:

lcs[MediaQuery]_[SpecificSelector]_[PseudoClass]_[CSSProperty]_[CSSValue]

Class Name Syntax Details

  • Media Queries: Prefix classes with lcsMQ for responsive styling.
  • Multi Styling: Define multiple properties and values in a single class name (e.g., lcsBackgroundColor.PaddingTop_red.20px).
  • Shortcut Patterns: Use shorthand syntax for frequently used properties, like lcsBGC_lightblue for background-color: lightblue.
  • Advanced Selectors: Use lcsAllOfType, lcsSibling (COMING SOON), lcsChild (COMING SOON), and similar selectors to apply styles to child or sibling elements.
  • Pseudo-Classes and Pseudo-Elements: Use lcsHPE (COMING SOON) for :hover, lcsBPE (COMING SOON) for ::before, and other similar syntax.
  • Direct Properties: Apply specific styles using the format lcs[Property]_[Value].

Example Syntax

<!-- Direct property example -->
<div class="lcsBackgroundColor_red">Red Background</div>

<!-- Multi Styling example -->
<div class="lcsBackgroundColor.Color.Padding_lightblue.white.10px">Multi Styled Element</div>

<!-- Shortcut example -->
<div class="lcsBGC_lightblue">Light Blue Background</div>

<!-- Media query example -->
<div class="lcsMQ_MaxWidth768PX_FontSize_12px">Font size 12px on screens 768px wide or smaller</div>

Internal Workings

LCS dySTYLE operates only on elements within the body tag and dynamically generates and injects CSS rules into the document’s internal style element. The library skips elements with data-dystyle="false" attributes, enabling selective styling control.
