Styletron is an universal toolkit for component-oriented styling. It falls into the CSS in JS category. Styletron works great with React but can be used with other frameworks or plain JS as well.

**Go to our documentation at [styletron.org](https://www.styletron.org)**!

## Usage with React

```js
import { styled } from "styletron-react";

// Create a styled component by passing an element name and a style object
const RedAnchor = styled("a", { color: "red" });
Hello;

// Or pass a function that takes props and returns a style object
const Panel = styled("div", props => {
return { backgroundColor: props.$alert ? "orange" : "lightblue" };
});
Hello;

// Do you prefer hooks?
import { useStyletron } from "styletron-react";
const [css] = useStyletron();

Hello
;
```

## Getting Started

Check [the documentation](https://www.styletron.org/getting-started/) to setup Styletron with Next.js, Gatsby or plain React/JS apps.

## Design principles

1. Component-oriented
- Stateless, single-element styled components as base styling primitive
- Prop interfaces for conditional/dynamic styling
2. Embrace typed JavaScript
- Composition of styles via (typed) JavaScript objects
- No extra tooling (e.g. Webpack loaders, Babel plugins, etc.)
3. Portability and flexibility
- Portability of styled components across different rendering engines (e.g. atomic CSS)

See [docs/design.md](docs/design.md) for more details.
