Package description
@chakra-ui/styled-system is a utility-first CSS-in-JS framework that allows you to style your components using a theme-based approach. It provides a set of functions and utilities to create consistent, theme-aware styles for your React components.
Theme-based Styling
This feature allows you to use a theme object to define consistent styles across your application. The `css` function takes a style object and applies the theme values.
import { theme, css } from '@chakra-ui/styled-system';
const styles = css({
color: 'primary',
fontSize: 'lg',
})(theme);Responsive Styles
You can define responsive styles using arrays. The `css` function will apply the styles based on the breakpoints defined in your theme.
import { css } from '@chakra-ui/styled-system';
const responsiveStyles = css({
fontSize: ['sm', 'md', 'lg'],
padding: [2, 4, 6],
});Utility Functions
Utility functions like `margin` and `padding` allow you to apply spacing and other styles easily. These functions help in creating consistent spacing and layout.
import { margin, padding } from '@chakra-ui/styled-system';
const boxStyles = {
...margin(4),
...padding(2),
};styled-components is a popular CSS-in-JS library that allows you to write plain CSS in your JavaScript. It provides a way to style your components using tagged template literals. Unlike @chakra-ui/styled-system, it does not come with a built-in theme system but allows you to create your own.
Emotion is another CSS-in-JS library that offers both string and object styles. It provides a powerful and flexible way to style your components. Emotion has a similar approach to @chakra-ui/styled-system but offers more flexibility in terms of styling methods.
Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework that provides low-level utility classes to build custom designs. Unlike @chakra-ui/styled-system, which is a CSS-in-JS solution, Tailwind CSS is a traditional CSS framework that you can use with any front-end library or framework.

Chakra UI provides pretty good support for bidirectional (bidi) CSS
properties. For our shorthand props, we provide a *Bidi suffix to manage the
rtl/ltr switching.
import { css } from "@chakra-ui/styled-system"
const theme = {
direction: "rtl", // ltr | rtl
}
const styles = css({
mt: "40px",
// bi-directional `margin-right`
// `margin-right` in ltr, `margin-left` in rtl
mrBidi: "30px",
})(theme)
const cssLogicalValueMap = {
float: { left: "inline-start", right: "inline-end" },
clear: { left: "inline-start", right: "inline-end" },
resize: { horizontal: "block", vertical: "inline" },
textAlign: { left: "start", right: "end" },
captionSize: { top: "block-start", bottom: "block-end" },
}
