Custom Styling

angular-addtocalendar is designed to be compatible with Bootstrap but also comes bundled with both a custom stylesheet and extendable Sass styles. The markup selector convention is identical to the Bootstrap dropdown markup.

Using Bootstrap

If you already have Bootstrap set up in your project, just pass in use-bootstrap="true" as a parameter to the <angular-addtocalendar /> component.

Using the default styling

If you're using Sass, you can import the default Sass stylesheet like so:

@import '~/angular-addtocalendar/addtocalendar.scss';

Or if you want to reference the compiled stylesheet directly:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="node_modules/angular-addtocalendar/styles.css" />

Extending the existing styles

Assuming you're using Sass, import the stylesheet as noted above. Otherwise, copy the compiled CSS bundled with the project and modify styles as such.

Namespacing

The css namespace (parent class) for this module is atc-btn-group (assuming use-bootstrap is false).
