Titan - APM's React Base Component Library
This is a collection of React components that are frequently needed in American Public Media's website. It will work with any website set up with Next.js.
How to use
Simply download from npm with npm i @apmg/titan
or yarn add @apmg/titan
, if you're using yarn. Import the components with ES6 import statements in the usual way. For example, if a page you are working on needs Content, Event, and Button components, you'd put the line import { Content, Event, Button } from '@apmg/titan
at the top of your file.
How to edit
If you need to make a change to a component, you may do so in the usual way. You can test your components with Jest by running yarn test
, you can see each of the components in action in yarn storybook
. If you want to ensure that the components are working in another application, run npm link
here and npm link @apmg/titan
in the directory of your choice. Uninstall the original @apmg/titan
first if the application you're testing was already relying on it.
Available components
We have split up our components into "atoms" which are very tiny components used everywhere, and "molecules" which are larger, more specific components that will likely only be useful for templating out APM sites. For an in-depth explanation of what these are and what they look like, check out our Storybook documentation site (WIP). Our image component, Mimas, is a separate library that can be found here.
Available Scripts
In the project directory, you can run:
yarn storybook
See a demo with all of these components in action, with default APM styling.
yarn dev
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
yarn test
Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.
yarn build
Builds the app for production to the dist
folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment for more information.
FAQ
What's with the name?
Our internal website generator will be called "Saturn". Therefore, each of the component libraries that it will be able to use will be named after Saturn's moons. This is the largest library we think we're going to have, so it got its name from Saturn's largest moon.
