What is @types/classnames?
The @types/classnames package provides TypeScript type definitions for the classnames library, which is a utility for conditionally joining classNames together. This package is useful for TypeScript users who want to ensure type safety when using classnames to dynamically generate class strings based on certain conditions.
What are @types/classnames's main functionalities?
Basic usage with strings
Combine multiple class names into a single string.
classNames('foo', 'bar'); // 'foo bar'
Using objects to conditionally apply classes
Apply classes based on the truthiness of the associated value.
classNames({ 'foo': true, 'bar': false }); // 'foo'
Combining types
Mix strings and objects to conditionally apply classes.
classNames('foo', { 'bar': true }, 'baz', { 'qux': false }); // 'foo bar baz'
Using arrays
Pass arrays of class names to be joined together.
classNames(['foo', 'bar'], ['baz']); // 'foo bar baz'
