Code for America's Style Guide

======

  • Current stable version: 4 (release-2 tag / linkable url)
  • Previous release (unsupported): 3 (master branch / linkable url)

The style guide serves as the base CSS and organizing styles for www.codeforamerica.org. The style guide is primarily a living pattern library that explains how to use our CSS to build websites. It contains:

  • A Jekyll site that serves as a living style guide and pattern library
  • A foundational CSS structure built with Sass
  • A grid-based layout system using Bourbon and Neat
  • Basic web typography
  • Code for America specific page templates
  • Polyfills that help older versions of IE support HTML5 elements, pseudoclasses, media queries, and rem units.
  • Additional vendor JavaScript to help with interactions

History and past versions

Code for America's communications and tech teams originally worked with Brighton web design firm Clearleft and Colorado branding firm Dojo4 to create a new visual design and front-end for the Code for America website. This original pattern library existed through three major releases before being retired in favor of the current trimmed-down style guide in this repo that is solely focused on providing patterns for building www.codeforamerica.org. See the original pattern library repository.

How to use it to build websites

  1. Read the docs. Complete documentation of the pattern library with copy-and-pastable code snippets is available at https://v4.style.codeforamerica.org.
  2. Add links to your document. For example, add these links to your <head> tag:
<head>
  ...
  <!-- Pattern Library Stylesheets -->
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://v4.style.codeforamerica.org/css/main.css">
  <!-- Font Vendor Stylesheets -->
  <script src="https://use.typekit.net/lkd6vsz.js"></script>
  <script>try{Typekit.load({ async: true });}catch(e){}</script>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
  <!-- Shims For Old Browsers -->
  <!--[if lt IE 9]>
    <script src="https://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
    <script src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/nwapi/nwmatcher/nwmatcher-1.2.5-min.js"></script>
    <script src="/js/selectivizr-min-1.0.2.js"></script>
    <![endif]-->
  ...
</head>

And add the following after all the content in your <body> tag:

<body>
  ...other content...
  <!-- SCRIPTS -->
  <script src="https://v4.style.codeforamerica.org/js/jquery-1.11.2.min.js"></script>
  <script src="https://v4.style.codeforamerica.org/js/site.js"></script>
</body>
