# Compositor Kit
Tools for developing, documenting, and testing React component libraries
- Zero-config development server
- Component library mode
- Utility components for demos and development
- Reuse component examples for development, documentation, and testing
- Read more about Kit on our [blog][blog]
[blog]: https://compositor.io/blog/introducing-kit/
## Getting Started
Install the Kit CLI to get started with isolated component development.
```sh
npm i -g @compositor/kit-cli
```
Create an `examples` folder for your components.
This folder can be used for development, documentation, and testing purposes.
An example file should export a single default component for rendering.
```js
// Button.js example
import React from 'react'
import { Button } from '../src'
export default props =>
Button
```
Be sure to install any local dependencies, including `react`,
and start the development server.
```sh
kit examples
```
The index will show a list of links to each example.
Each example will have its own route where it can be viewed in isolation.
### Library Mode
To view all examples in library mode with persistent navigation, use the `--mode` flag.
```sh
kit examples --mode library
```
## Utility Components
If you already have an existing development setup, or want to enhance your examples, use the [Kit components][core] directly in any React setup.
```sh
npm i @compositor/kit
```
### Library
Use the [`Library`][library], `Example`, and `Detail` components to create a custom component library view.
```jsx
import React from 'react'
import { Library, Example } from '@compositor/kit'
import { Button } from '../src'
export default props =>
Button
```
### XRay
Use the [`XRay`][xray] component to outline HTML elements and display a grid to help ensure your UI is visually aligned.
```jsx
import React from 'react'
import { XRay } from '@compositor/kit'
import { Button } from '../src'
export default props =>
Button
```
### Cartesian
Use the [`Cartesian`][cartesian] component to render the cartesian product of props.
```jsx
import React from 'react'
import { Cartesian } from '@compositor/kit'
import Button from '../src/Button'
export default props => (
)
```
### Responsive
Use the [`Responsive`][responsive] component to render components in multiple iframes at different viewport sizes.
```jsx
import React from 'react'
import { Responsive } from '@compositor/kit'
import PageHeader from '../src/PageHeader'
const example = (
)
```
### Other Components
See the [Kit components][core] package for more components.
## Kit Init
Use the `kit init` command to create a new project based on a growing set of [templates](templates).
## Utilities
- [*kit-snapshot*](snapshot): run Jest snapshot tests for example components
