Installation

$ npm install @kisskissbankbank/kitten

Usage

CSS utilities

CSS Utilities are classe that can be used for very basic styling. These utility classes are used by React Components. Kitten will not work properly without these utility classes.

@import '@kisskissbankbank/kitten/src/stylesheets/utilities';

Look at the doc to know if/when to use it.

It is recommended that you use an utility like Purge CSS at build time, to remove all the unused CSS utilities (be sure to include the path of your Kitten dependency so it's taken into account).

React components

You can render React components directly in your js bundle:

import { SimpleCard } from '@kisskissbankbank/kitten'

ReactDOM.render(
  <SimpleCard {...props} />,
  document.getElementById('main')
)
