# CSS Zero

An opinionated CSS starter kit for your Ruby on Rails application. You can think of it like a "no build" Tailwind CSS.

## Installation

Add this gem to your project.

```
bundle add css-zero
```

Add the base.css file to your application.

```
bin/rails generate css_zero:install
```

Add only the components you need. (Optional)

```
bin/rails generate css_zero:add --help
bin/rails generate css_zero:add layouts flash button input switch table ...
```

### Requirements

If you are using [Propshaft](https://github.com/rails/propshaft) (recommended) make sure to load all the CSS files in your layout.html.erb.

Click here to see how

```html+erb
<%= stylesheet_link_tag :all, "data-turbo-track": "reload" %>
```

If you are using [Sprockets](https://github.com/rails/sprockets) make sure to load all the CSS files in your application.css.

Click here to see how

```
/*
*= require _reset
*= require animations
*= require borders
*= require colors
*= require effects
*= require filters
*= require grid
*= require sizes
*= require transform
*= require transition
*= require typography
*= require_tree .
*= require_self
*= require zutilities
*/
```

Some icons in the examples are not copied to the project. If you are looking for good ones, I recommend [Lucide](https://lucide.dev).

## Usage

```html


Write most page content using utility classes.


Create components using CSS variables.


Optionally, copy pre-built components into your application.

```

```css
.custom-component {
background-color: var(--red-500);
border-radius: var(--rounded);
block-size: var(--size-4);
}
```

Check the [CSS files](app/assets/stylesheets) in the repository to see the available variables and utility classes.

## Development

To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
