Prerequisite
Tokens
To include the tokens, you must load theme css:
'node_modules/@vonage/vivid/styles/tokens/theme-light.css';
Or
'node_modules/@vonage/vivid/styles/tokens/theme-dark.css';
About tokens
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.
Setting Vivid class
The Vivid tokens require a vvd-root
class selector to be present on a wrapping element (advisably the :root
) for it to apply its css custom properties to.
💡 The :root CSS pseudo-class matches the root element of a tree representing the document
<html class="vvd-root">...</html>
You can also add it to any wrapping element if you would like to scope the styles to only a certain part of your application.
Fonts (Prerequisite)
Vivid uses Montserrat and Roboto Mono Google fonts.
Learn how to load fonts into your application with google-fonts
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, Vonage products should use the brand specified font families by Spezia. Vonage teams may review guidelines at the Spezia webfont kit.

CDN - 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.
