Using the files in Sass from npm resource
$ npm i @aurodesignsystem/webcorestylesheets
There are no core files to import, rather WCSS is an à la carte solution allowing for users to import what they want and when they want it. In most cases you can simply import the Sass file as illustrated below:
@import "./../node_modules/@aurodesignsystem/webcorestylesheets/src/ ... ";
Multi-Theme Support
WebCoreStyleSheets provides multi-theme support for various brands in the Alaska Air Group. Each theme includes its own font definitions and styling.
Available Themes
For more information on the available themes and how to use them, please see the Auro Design Tokens documentation.
Using a Theme
To use a specific theme in your project, import the corresponding theme file.
For example:
/* Alaska Airlines theme (Auro default) */
@import "./../node_modules/@aurodesignsystem/webcorestylesheets/src/essentials-as";
Additional themes are available in the src
directory.
Bundled Theme Resources
Each theme also has a bundled version in the dist/bundles
directory that includes essentials for quick implementation:
For example:
/* Alaska Airlines theme (Auro default) */
dist/bundles/essentials-as.css
Development
To develop against WCSS run both npm run watch
and npm run serve
in separate terminals.
The watch
command will run a Sass linter, process a test file from Sass to CSS and run a post CSS linter. This will ensure the quality of all new Sass added to the repo.
If additional selectors or scenarios are needed, please update the ./scripts/testBuild.scss
file to test your code.
Running the serve
command will open the Sassdoc view. Please review all changes as Sassdoc produces all documentation.
