scss

SCSS boilerplate with common functions, mixins, helpers and patterns to kickstart CSS authoring.

The package sets some sensible defaults for HTML elements eg.:

// base/*.scss

* {
    box-sizing: border-box;
    position: relative;

    &:after,
    &:before {
        box-sizing: border-box;
    }
}

Generic helper classes are included for common layout issues:

// helpers/margin.scss

.h-margin {
    ...
}

.h-margin-none {
    ...
}

.h-margin-small {
    ...
}

...

Default settings are stored in Sass maps...

// settings/typography.scss

$font-weight: (
    default: (
            ...
            ),
    secondary: (
        normal: 400,
        bold: 700,
    ),
    fixed: (
       ...
    ),
) !default;


// settings/colors.scss

$blue: (
    lightest: #e6f5ff,
    lighter: #8bcdff,
    ...
) !default;

... and can be used with mixins or functions afterwards:

// my-app.scss

@import 'scss-boilerplate/settings';
@import 'my-custom-settings';
@import 'scss-boilerplate/styles';

h1 {
    @include font-secondary-bold;
    color: blue(darkest);
}

Install

You can install the package via yarn:

yarn add scss-boilerplate

Usage

Import

Import the base & styles file in your SCSS files.

@import 'scss-boilerplate/settings';
@import 'scss-boilerplate/styles';

Overwriting defaults

All default settings are stored in src/settings. Copy 1 or more of these Sass maps to your own project and import them before you import the main file.

Eg. to set your own gutters in px instead of rem, you would construct or import your own $gutters variable. Be sure to remove the !default flag for this variable.

// your-app.scss
@import 'scss-boilerplate/settings';

// overwrite default settings
$gutter: (
    xs: 5px,
    s: 10px,
    default: 20px,
    ...
);

@import 'scss-boilerplate/styles';

Autoprefixing

CSS properties are not vendor-prefixed. Running autoprefixer in your own build process is recommended.

Documentation

This package implements the ideas from our css-styleguide.
