Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

StepZen Design System

This npm package includes design tokens, styles and UI components shared across different StepZen web apps: the docs and marketing site stepzen.com, the "My Account" dashboard dashboard.stepzen.com, etc.

This repo includes Storybook as a tool to visualise the contents of the design system, making it available on the web. The Storybook for the main branch is automatically published to https://main--62ba1d9d935e74836cf81cae.chromatic.com/.

NOTE: it might take up to an hour after a push to main before changes appear on https://main--62ba1d9d935e74836cf81cae.chromatic.com/.

How to use

In a NextJS app

  • add an npm dependency: npm install --save @stepzen/design-system
  • inlcude styles into the pages/_app.js
    import "@stepzen/design-system/dist/css/index.css";
  • That's it. Now you can access to the CSS custom properties, global styles and UI components from the StepZen design system in your .css and .js / .ts files.

Updating and publishing a new version

Manual publishing steps:

  • git clone [email protected]:steprz/design-system.git --depth 1
  • cd design-system
  • npm ci
  • npm version [new version]
  • npm run build
  • npm publish
  • git push (to push the version commit)
  • git push --tags (to push the new version tag)
  • create a GitHub release from the new version tag
  • post a summary to the #dev-products-frontend Slack channel

Adding a new global style

Global style sheets set CSS custom properties on the HTML page :root and / or modify styles of the standard HTML elements such as <h1> or <body>.

How to add a new global style to the StepZen design system:

  • consider if it would make sense to append the new style to one of the existing .css files
  • if not, create a new stylesheet-name.css file under src/styles (or src/styles/tokens for new design tokens)
  • write CSS as usual, assuming it is loaded into apps by a regular <link rel="stylesheet"> tag
  • import the new .css file into src/styles/index.css with a relative @import()
  • create a [StylesheetName].stories.mdx file next to the stylesheet-name.css file (copy from one of the existing similar files)
  • update the <Meta title="Design Tokens/Colors" /> tag in the copied file appropriately
  • describe the new stylesheet so that other engineers on the StepZen team know what it is and how to use it
  • publish a new version of the @stepzen/design-system package to npm (most likely, this would be a minor)
  • That's it. All apps using the StepZen design system via import '@stepzen/design-system/dist/css/index.css' will get new global styles after bumping the version of their @stepzen/design-system npm dependency.

Adding a new UI component

TBD

Currently, the design system only includes a dummy sample Button component which is not intended for actual usage.

Running locally

This repo uses NodeJS 16+ and npm 7+.

  • npm run build - (re)create a production design system bundle in the dist/ folder (includes .css, .js, and .d.ts files)
  • npm run storybook - start a local Storybook server on http://localhost:6006
  • npm run build-storybook - create a production storybook bundle in the storybook-static/ folder
  • npx chromatic --project-token=<project-token> - recreate a production srotybook bundle and publish it to chromatic.com. Copy the project token from https://www.chromatic.com/manage?appId=62ba1d9d935e74836cf81cae&view=configure. Typically you do not need to do that, since all branches on GitHub are automatically deployed to chromatic.com by the "Chromatic" GitHub workflow (see .github/workflows/chromatic.yaml).
