plone-less-base

Base less styles for Plone 5 theming

Use case

We use these styles while bootstrapping a new theme with plonecli, in order to have basic plone styles ready and save some time on development.

Usage

In order to use this correctly, you will need to tell your less compiler to also read files from the node_modules folder.

• If you use it through the less cli, by adding the --include-path=node_modules argument
• If you configure it with a js object, add the paths property, which will look like this: paths: ['node_modules']

This is needed because the styles inside this package read other styles from its bootstrap dependency, and it will also make it smoother for you to use these styles.

Documentation: http://lesscss.org/usage/#less-options-cross-platform-options.

In order to add these styles to your theme styles, import it like this:

@import 'plone-less-base/styles.less';

Modular import

If you don't need all of the styles provided here, you can cherry-pick the partials you need by making a copy of the main stylesheet of this package (styles.less) and commenting the partials you don't need.

Bonus

As an extra that may be helpful, in the lib folder of the package you download from npm, there is a compiled css stylesheet with all of the styles included in this repo.

Installation

npm install --save plone-less-base

## Compatibility

These styles are developed for Plone 5.x sites.
