postcss-vertical-rhythm

A PostCSS plugin to create a custom vertical rhythm unit from the base font-size and line-height.

Examples

Set the font on the body selector using the CSS shorthand method, you can use either px, em, rem or % unit for font-size:

body {
  font: 16px/2 serif;
}

This will create a line-height of 32px, which will be the vertical rhythm value. Now you can use the custom vertical rhythm unit, vr:

Input:

p {
  margin-bottom: 1vr;
  padding-top: .5vr;
}

Output:

p {
  margin-bottom: 32px;
  padding-top: 16px;
}

  rootSelector: 'body',
}

npm install postcss-vertical-rhythm --save-dev
