# veel [![NPM version][version-image]][version-url] [![Js Standard Style][standard-image]][standard-url]
:package: Base React styling components using [`Fela`](http://fela.js.org) with a [design system](https://github.com/jxnblk/styled-system)
* **Low-Level** - Exposes only a few components which can be used as a base layer to build your UI components upon
* **Consistency** - Uses `styled-system` which encourages consistency of spacing, typography and color
* **Universal** - By using fela it's really easy to prerender your styles on the server or anywhere
```
npm install veel
```
```js
const Badge = (props) => (
)
```

## Example
The following renders a responsive row with two equally divided divs collapsing on mobile.
```js
const CenteredBox = props => (
)
const App = () => (
1
2
)
```
## Usage
1. Create a [`fela`](http://fela.js.org/docs/api/fela-native/createRenderer.html) renderer.
```js
import { createRenderer } from 'veel'
const renderer = createRenderer()
```
2. Wrap your application in a `StyleProvider` so that each `veel` component has access to the renderer and the optional theme.
```js
import { StyleProvider, Box } from 'veel'
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
Application
)
}
}
```
3. Now you need some way of injecting the generated css into the html. There are many ways to do it, each with their positive and negative aspects.
**Injecting the css dynamically**
```js
require('inject-css')(renderer.renderToString())
```
**Render to a sheet list ([Next.js](http://ghub.io/next) example)**
This makes the most sense when you create the document skeleton with JSX.
```js
import Document, { Head } from 'next/document'
class CustomDocument extends Document {
static getInitialProps ({ renderPage }) {
const page = renderPage()
const sheets = renderer.renderToSheetList()
renderer.clear()
return { ...page, sheets }
}
render () {
const sheets = this.props.sheets
return (
{sheets.map(({ type, media, css }) => (
{css}
))}
...
)
}
}
```
4. You're done!
## Components
### Box
```js
Hello Veel!
```
The core layout component. Take a look at [`styled-system`](https://github.com/jxnblk/styled-system/blob/master/README.md) for documentation on `` `props`.
#### `Box.is`
By default a `` component will render out to a `div`. You can change the tag by providing an `is` property.
### Flex
```js
```
[View the example](./demo/src/index.js) on how to use it.
#### `Flex.center`
Sets both `alignItems` and `justifyContent` to `center`.
#### `Flex.wrap`
Sets `flexWrap` to `wrap`.
#### `Flex.column`
Sets `flexDirection` to `column`.
#### `Flex.justify`
CSS `justifyContent` property.
#### `Flex.align`
CSS `alignItem` property.
#### `Flex.order`
CSS `order` property.
## Plugins
By using fela you have a wide variety of plugins available. Check out the [plugin list](http://fela.js.org/docs/introduction/Ecosystem.html#plugins)
### Recommend plugins
* [**`fela-plugin-embedded`**](https://github.com/rofrischmann/fela/tree/master/packages/fela-plugin-embedded) - Inline keyframes and font-faces
```js
// -> { animationName: 'k1' }
```
