Sushi Bazooka

Component-based JavaScript library

Sushi Bazooka has a set of reusable, little opinionated components — what means they will be most likely be missing styling until you add it yourself. Opinionated properties will be commented-out in the code to serve as examples of where you should be styling things.

Including your styles

You should include your styles after including the base styles from Sushi Bazooka. In your main SCSS file it might look like the following:

@import "node_modules/sushi-bazooka/sass/components/chaser"; // base styles
@import "mysite/components/chaser"; // opinionated styles

Wait... I'm overriding rules now

Yes, you are. And, of course, this is pretty bad. But at least now you have a somewhat pre-built list of JavaScript components that can be used as-is if you'd like or can be overridden with your own styles.

But if you think that's not a good reason to break the cleanliness of your code, clean-css got you covered with the merge flags in its Level 2 Optimizations. Win-win.

Sushi Base

Most components rely on the global spacing variables included by default in Sushi Base and it's assumed that you will include Sushi Bazooka alongside Sushi Base. Working with Sushi Bazooka own its own is not supported and will not work unless you spend a fair amount of time building its dependencies from scratch.

Variables

Some components (like Reveal) may have opinionated but required properties (like Reveal's transition duration). Those properties have a default reasonable value and may be customized through variables, which are set at the very beginning of each component's SCSS file. Usually we don't go that route because maintaining a big set of variables defeats the purpose of using an object-oriented approach to CSS, but sometimes (like inside a placeholder class that can't be easily overridden) that's the only way to make things work while keeping a minimum of customization options.

Current customizable global variables are:

• $globalTransitionTimingFunction CSS easing function, default: ease-in-out -- Global timing function to be used for all transitions. Any easing function from easings.net should work on all major browsers.
• $globalBorderRadius pixels, default: 3px -- Base border radius used across

You can see more variables in settings/_variables.scss, where you will also find further comments on their use.
