Please use separate @blaze packages
Blaze has moved to scoped packages under @blaze.
This makes it easier for you to install only what you need and allows us to name and organise our packages how we'd like.
Blaze
Blaze is a framework-free open source UI toolkit. It provides great structure for building websites quickly with a scalable and maintainable foundation.

Local Developer Setup
First of all install NVM.
When that is complete run:
$ nvm use
$ npm iThat's essentially it! Here are some useful commands:
| npm run <command> | Description |
| ------------------- | :----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| test | Lints all the scss files and runs all the tests on the atoms |
| dev | Runs the dev servers with live reloads for both scss and atoms |
| commit | To commit any changes please use npm run commit, more info below |
Committing
When committing changes please follow the Conventional Commits format.
The best thing to do is simply run npm run commit and it'll take you through a step-by-step wizard.
Installing the CSS
The easiest way to use the toolkit is via CDN.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/@blaze/[email protected]/dist/blaze.css">The x.x.x is the specific version of the library, you should use specifc versions to prevent against breaking changes.
How to start applying styles
We've designed the toolkit not to interfere with others or your own styles, hence Blaze won't automatically do anything to your site.
The following won't change by simply linking to blaze.css like it would with others such as Bootstrap or Foundation:
<button type="button">Button</button>You need to apply our button classes:
<button class="c-button" type="button">Button</button>This means you have to add classes to each part of your site where you want Blaze to apply. Take a look at the documentation for our objects, components, typography etc. and you'll see how intuitive it is to use.
Installing the JavaScript Components
Link to it by adding the following to your <head></head>.
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@blaze/[email protected]/dist/blaze-atoms.js"></script>The x.x.x is the specific version of the library, you should use specifc versions to prevent against breaking changes.
That's it! Start using the components in your HTML.
Integrating with a Framework
Blaze uses Stencil to compile our components into Web Components. And since they can be used within frameworks or in standard HTML websites the best resource to read is the Stencil documentation regarding framework integration.
