Writing CSS with TypeStyle will be just as fluent as writing JavaScript with TypeScript.

There are quite a few css in js frameworks out there. This one is different:

- Provides great TypeScript developer experience.
- No custom AST transform or module loader support needed.
- Works with any framework (react, angular2, [cyclejs](https://twitter.com/waynemaurer/status/788483714196078593), whatever, doesn't matter).
- Zero config. Just use.
- *super* **small**

* [Why](#why)

## Quickstart

Use it like you would use CSS modules or CSS in general with webpack etc, but this time you get to use TypeScript / JavaScript!

**Install**
`npm install typestyle --save`

**Use**
```tsx
/** Import */
import {style} from "typestyle";

/** convert a style object to a CSS class name */
const className = style({color: 'red'});

/** Use the class name in a framework of choice */
// e.g. React
const MyButton =
({onClick,children})
=>
{children}

// or Angular2
@Component({
selector: 'my-component',
template: `

Tada
`
})
export class MyComponent {}
```

## Guide
We really really want to make CSS maintainable and simple. So we even wrote a free and open source book, covering the super simple core API, a handful of utility styles in [`csx`](https://github.com/typestyle/csx) and tons of other goodness 🌹. *[Jump to the guide][book]*

## Video Course
The guide contains everything you need to know. But if you prefer to watch video [we have a free course up on egghead][course].

## Why
You are probably here cause you are unhappy with your current workflow. So why not just jump to the [guide][book] and give it a go. If you [still need reasons we have quite a few][why].
