Getting Started

Step 1: Install react-iotacss package

$ npm install --save react-iotacss

Step 2: Install iotaCSS

For this example, we will use iotaPlate, iotaCSS's official CLI.

$ npm install -g iotaplate

Navigate to the directory you want to have your scss. For this example is scss:

$ cd scss
$ iotaplate

Step 3: Import and use React iotaCSS

import React from 'react'

// Import Container, H1 and P components
import { Container, H1, P } from 'react-iotacss'

// Import iotaCSS SCSS code that we generated with iotaPlate
import './scss/main.scss'

const App = () => (
  <Container size="small">
    <H1 size="large">Getting Started with React iotaCSS</H1>
    <P>This is an example on how to get started with React iotaCSS</P>
  </Container>
)

Utilities

React iotaCSS uses a smart way to parse properties to utility classes:

<Type uText="center" uMb>Centered text with default margin botto</Type>

<p class="o-text-center u-mb">Centered text with default margin bottom</p>

Available Properties

The available properties are the same as the utilities that come with iotaCSS:

  • uAlign
  • uBgcolor
  • uClearfix
  • uColor
  • uDisplay
  • uFloat
  • uMt
  • uMr
  • uMb
  • uMl
  • uMv
  • uMh
  • uOpacity
  • uPt
  • uPr
  • uPb
  • uPl
  • uPv
  • uPh
  • uPosition
  • uPull
  • uPush
  • uSize
  • uText
  • uTransform
  • uWeight

Example

<H1 size="large" uText="center" uMb="all large@sm">Hello World</H1>

<h1 class="o-type-size u-mb u-mb-large@sm">Hello World</h1>

Responsive Utilities

React iotaCSS also supports responsive utilities with a similar syntax to iotaCSS itself, with one big difference. Since in React you cannot pass two times the same property with difference values, iotaCSS introduces the 'all' word which is used in case you want to have for example a default margin everywhere and a large margin to only 'sm' breakpoint:

<Type uText="right center@sm" uMb="large" uMt="all large@sm">Right on all devices, center on tablets and up. Default margin bottom in all devices and large margin bottom in tablets and up</Type>

<p class="u-text-right u-text-center@sm u-mb-large u-mt u-mt-large@sm" uMb="large" uMt="all large@sm">Right on all devices, center on tablets and up. Default margin bottom in all devices and large margin bottom in tablets and up</p>
