Tokens (Prerequisite)

The Vivid components library rely on a set of design tokens (in the form of css custom properties).

Tokens should not affect the look of the application rather just provide a common set of identities (such as colors, typography, spacing etc') to be used by the components to look as intended.

As the task of loading css is not trivial, and may vary from project to project, this library does not provide any way to load the css. It is up to the author to load the css in the most appropriate manner for their project.

To include the tokens, its css files must be loaded into the project from the node_modules/@vonage/vivid/styles/tokens folder and require a vvd-root class selector to be present on a wrapping element (advisably the :root).

Tokens folder contains the following files:

• theme-light.css - Light theme

• theme-dark.css - Dark theme

Only one theme is required to be loaded.

Fonts (Prerequisite)

• node_modules/@vonage/vivid/styles/fonts/spezia.css - Loads the Spezia variable font and defines its font face values. Spezia is Vonage's branded font and is required by most Vivid components. folder also contains the font files.

Note that font files are not included within the css file, and must be copied to application assets separately (within the same parsed css folder). This is to allow the author to choose the most appropriate way to load the font files based on their project.

Core (Optional)

In Addition, this library provides a set of styles (combined with the tokens and fonts) that can be used to embody the Vivid design system into an application.

These styles are not required by vivid components directly. however, native HTML tags do.

These core styles rely on the tokens and fonts 👆 to be loaded.

To include the core styles, its css files must be loaded into the project from the node_modules/@vonage/vivid/styles/core folder and require a vvd-root class selector to be present on a wrapping element (advisably the :root).

• theme.css - Sets theme related styles

• typography.css - Sets typography related styles

• all.css - Sets all the above styles

Note: scss users can simply forward the styles to their scss project:

@forward 'node_modules/@vonage/vivid/styles/[path to file].css';

Quickstart

Global content delivery networks can help quickly integrate content within html pages, fetching content from an URL, skipping local builds entirely. Such practice is often used when working on POCs or reproduction environments. Tools like UNPKG, jsDeliver, Skypack etc' are bound to deliver any content registered in the npm registry.
