## Setup

> This guide is currently optimised for usage with [sku](https://github.com/seek-oss/sku), since it's configured to support Braid out of the box. If your project has a custom build setup, you'll need some extra guidance from project contributors to configure your bundler.

In your sku project, first install this library:

```bash
$ npm install --save braid-design-system
```

At the _very top_ of your application, import the reset, required theme and the `BraidProvider` component.

**WARNING: The reset styles must be imported first to avoid CSS ordering issues.**

For example:

```js
import 'braid-design-system/reset'; // <-- Must be first
import apacTheme from 'braid-design-system/themes/apac';
import { BraidProvider, Text } from 'braid-design-system';
// ...etc.
```

Finally, render the `BraidProvider` component, providing the imported theme via the `theme` prop:

```js
import 'braid-design-system/reset';
import apacTheme from 'braid-design-system/themes/apac';
import { BraidProvider, Text } from 'braid-design-system';

export default () => (

Hello World!

);
```

If you're rendering within the context of another application, you may want to opt out of the provided body styles, which set the background color and reset margin and padding:

```js

Hello World!

```

If you'd like to customise the technical implementation of all `Link` and `TextLink` components from Braid, you can pass a custom component to the `linkComponent` prop on `BraidProvider`. For example, if you wanted to ensure that all relative links are [React Router](https://reacttraining.com/react-router/) links:

```tsx
import React from 'react';
import { Link as ReactRouterLink } from 'react-router-dom';
import { BraidProvider, makeLinkComponent } from 'braid-design-system';
import wireframe from 'braid-design-system/themes/wireframe';

// First create the custom link implementation:
const CustomLink = makeLinkComponent(({ href, ...restProps }, ref) =>
href[0] === '/' ? (

) : (

),
);

// Then pass it to BraidProvider:
export const App = () => (

...

);
```

## Local Development
