Getting Started

First, install component library and styled-components in your project directory:

$ npm i react95 styled-components

Apply style reset, wrap your app content with ThemeProvider with theme of your choice... and you are ready to go! 🚀

import React from "react";
import { createGlobalStyle, ThemeProvider } from "styled-components";
import { reset, themes, List, ListItem, Divider } from "react95";

const ResetStyles = createGlobalStyle`
  ${reset}
`;

export default props =>
  <div className="App">
    <ResetStyles />
    <ThemeProvider theme={themes.default}>
      <List>
          <ListItem>🎤 Sing</ListItem>
          <ListItem>💃🏻 Dance</ListItem>
          <Divider />
          <ListItem disabled>😴 Sleep</ListItem>
      </List>
    </ThemeProvider>
  </div>

Contributing

We are not attempting to exactly RECREATE Windows95 components. We are going to make them usable in the modern mobile / web apps. Thus, any help from UI / UX designers would be EXTREMELY appreciated. The challenge is to come up with new component designs / layouts that are broadly used in modern UIs, that weren't present back in 95.

There's a lot to do. If you want to help with the project, feel free to open pull requests and submit issues. Let's make UI great again 🔥

Roadmap

There's quite a few things to be done:

Styled system
Lots of tacky color schemes 🌈
Custom icons maybe? (Emojis from Windows 10 seem to go very well with the lib)
Typography
Range slider component
Avatar component
Components common in all modern UIs (FAB, Badge, Avatar, Snackbar, Steppers)

And the boring stuff too:

Testing
Semantic release
eslint
