Making CSS type safe.

Build Status NPM version Downloads Minzipped Size

Writing CSS with TypeStyle will be just as fluent as writing JavaScript with TypeScript.

There are quite a few css in js frameworks out there. This one is different:

  • Provides great TypeScript developer experience.
  • No custom AST transform or module loader support needed.
  • Works with any framework (react, angular2, cyclejs, whatever, doesn't matter).
  • Zero config. Just use.
  • super small

This project is powered by github 🌟s ^ go ahead and star it please.

Overview

Quickstart

Use it like you would use CSS modules or CSS in general with webpack etc, but this time you get to use TypeScript / JavaScript!

Install npm install typestyle --save

Use

/** Import */
import {style} from "typestyle";

/** convert a style object to a CSS class name */
const className = style({color: 'red'});

/** Use the class name in a framework of choice */
//  e.g. React
const MyButton =
  ({onClick,children})
    => <button className={className} onClick={onClick}>
        {children}
      </button>
// or Angular2
@Component({
  selector: 'my-component',
  template: `<div class="${className}">Tada</div>`
})
export class MyComponent {}

Guide

We really really want to make CSS maintainable and simple. So we even wrote a free and open source book, covering the super simple core API, a handful of utility styles in csx and tons of other goodness 🌹. Jump to the guide
