Fuel UX extends Twitter Bootstrap with additional lightweight JavaScript controls. Other benefits include easy installation into web projects, integrated scripts for customizing Bootstrap and Fuel UX, simple updates, and solid optimization for deployment. All functionality is covered by live documentation and unit tests.
Fuel UX provides all of the styles and plugins from the revolutionary Twitter Bootstrap project, with the following additions:
- Fuel UX JavaScript controls (with unit tests) see them live
- Checkbox - consistent cross-browser cross-platform look and feel for checkbox elements
- Combobox - combines input and dropdown for easy and flexible data selection
- Datagrid - renders data in a table with paging, sorting, and searching
- Datepicker - combines input and dropdown for easy selection of dates
- Pillbox - manages selected items with color-coded text labels
- Preloader - fully css-driven loading animation for visual indication of wait times
- Radio - consistent cross-browser cross-platform look and feel for radio elements
- Scheduler - composite form control to quickly schedule events
- Search - combines input and button for integrated search interaction
- Select - extends button dropdown with the ability to set and retrieve the selected item
- Spinner - provides convenient numeric input with increment and decrement buttons
- Tree - renders data in a tree, supporting caching and optional multi-selection
- Wizard - displays a multi-step process to be completed in a specific order
* Smart Dropdowns - _dropdown automatically decides whether it should be placed above or below the clicked element (can also force position). Add `data-direction="auto|up|down"` to element that has `data-toggle="dropdown"`_
- One-step installation and updates through volo
- AMD compatibility for modular structure and deployment optimization
- Grunt-based build script to easily create custom distribution files
- Namespaced CSS (just add a
fueluxclass) for safe use on existing sites
You can install FuelUX using volo. You will want to pass the -amdoff flag to volo to tell it not to try and amdify the project:
volo add -amdoff fuelux
git clone git://github.com/ExactTarget/fuelux.git- Default Fuel UX files for production use are located in the dist directory
- To customize, modify the JS and LESS files under src then run
gruntto regenerate your dist directory (more below)
Be sure to add the fuelux stylesheet to your page's head tag, along with the responsive stylesheet if desired:
<link href="//www.fuelcdn.com/fuelux/2.4.1/css/fuelux.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link href="//www.fuelcdn.com/fuelux/2.4.1/css/fuelux-responsive.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">If using AMD (such as RequireJS) reference the fuelux directory in your paths configuration, wherever it is located:
require.config({
paths: {
'fuelux': 'http://www.fuelcdn.com/fuelux/2.4.1/'
//...
}
});Then list any individual fuelux controls needed as dependencies within your application modules:
define(function(require) {
var spinner = require('fuelux/spinner');
//...
});Alternatively, 'fuelux/all' can be used as a dependency to bring in all available controls at once.
If you'd prefer not to use AMD, simply add the loader script to the head tag of your page:
<script src="http://www.fuelcdn.com/fuelux/2.4.1/loader.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>Hosted on GitHub pages: http://exacttarget.github.com/fuelux

Release history can be found here.
Before writing code, we suggest you search for issues or create a new one to confirm where your contribution fits into our roadmap.
In lieu of a formal style guide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using grunt.
More about Contributing to Fuel UX
Please don't edit files in the dist directory as they are generated via grunt. You'll find source code in the src directory!
While grunt can run the included unit tests via PhantomJS, this isn't a substitute for the real thing. Please be sure to test the test/*.html unit test file(s) in real browsers as well.
More about Installing grunt and PhantomJS
Our aim is to provide a suite of related but independent projects that help web developers integrate, manage, and customize quality libraries and utilities to more efficiently develop, maintain, test, and distribute their projects. Any improvements or fixes we make to the open source projects we use will be contributed upstream if they are useful to the rest of the community.
We are grateful to the maintainers, contributors, and sponsors of the following technologies which make FuelUX possible:
-
jQuery (Library for DOM, events, animation, and AJAX)
-
Twitter Bootstrap (Modern UI components and interactions)
-
grunt (Build tool for JavaScript projects)
