L3vels.xyz UI styles

This package includes all of the styling foundations of l3vels.xyz Theme definition, colors, shadows, dimensions, icons, etc.

Although we use React in our product this library will try to stay framework agnostic, we expose here the foundations of our design system so they can be used regardless the framework/environment you are using.

Installation

npm install @l3-lib/ui-style --save

Usage

Styles: Import the css file in order to have the css variables exposed on the root level

@import "~@l3-lib/ui-style/dist/index.min.css";

or if you want to import it in your JS files

import "@l3-lib/ui-style/dist/index.min.css";

Icons: We expose each icon's SVG from the dist files so you can use them in your app.

import IconName from "@l3-lib/ui-style/src/Icons/IconName.svg";

Icons

Adding a new icon

In order to add a new icon you will need to fork the repo and open a PR

When adding a new icon please make sure that there isn't a similar icon - if so, either replace the icon or make sure that we need another version of it

Metadata file

We maintain a metadata file for each icon, it helps our icon library be more readable and searchable when searching for a relevant icons

How to add a new icon? Add the icon in SVG format under the src/Icons folder (size 20x20) then run npm run generate-meta and fill in the relevant information (you can add multiple icons and run the command once)

Icon colors

We want to support the ability for the svg icon to adapt the css color attribute, therefore we when adding an icon all of the colors in the SVG should be currentColor.

In some rare occasions when you want to preserve a color within the icon please consider the following:

• currentColor might change according to position and theming
• this is an open source library so brand colors might change
• please be aware that we will add a monochrome version of that icon as well

New icon request

  "extends": "@l3-lib/ui-style/stylelint-config",
