gel-foundations-styled-components ·

This package is a collection of styled component implementations based on BBC GEL guidelines which can be imported into your application.

Installation

npm install @bbc/gel-foundations-styled-components --save

Usage

import { GEL_BREVIER } from '@bbc/gel-foundations-styled-components/typography';

To allow the typography to be fully accessible and responsive, please note that you should apply a default font-size to the document root (e.g. html { font-size: 100% }).

Our typography uses em for font-size and rem for line-height. em allows modularity of components: you can change the component font-size by changing the font-size of its container. rem is relative to the document root, so we use that for line-height and spacing for a consistent look-and-feel across the document. You can read our detailed analysis of "REMs vs EMs for spacing" for more information.
