Documentation

Check out our styleguide for documentation of this pack.

Basic Usage

CSS

Add the seed-typography.css or seed-typography.min.css to your project, and import it like so:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/seed-typography.css">

SCSS

This seed pack needs to be imported into your sass pipeline. Below is an example using Gulp:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var sass = require('gulp-sass');
var seedTypography = require('seed-typography');
 
gulp.task('sass', function () {
  return gulp.src('./sass/**/*.scss')
    .pipe(sass({
      includePaths: seedTypography
    }))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./css'));
});

Once that is setup, simply @import seed-typography as needed in your .scss file:

// Packs
@import "pack/seed-typography/_index";

Note: Because seed-typography has dependencies, its includePaths output will be an array. If you're including other paths in addition to seed-typography, you will need to flatten the array. An easy way to do this is to use sass-pathfinder.

Example with sass-pathfinder:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var sass = require('gulp-sass');
var seedTypography = require('seed-typography');
var pathfinder = require('sass-pathfinder');
 
gulp.task('sass', function () {
  return gulp.src('./sass/**/*.scss')
    .pipe(sass({
      includePaths: pathfinder(
        './scss/vendor/example',
        './scss/plugins/super-awesome-plugin',
        seedTypography
      )
    }))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./css'));
});

Thanks

We've updated the default namespace of text classes from t- to tx-. Following the ITCSS convention, t- is reserved for "theme" classes.

A huge thanks to Alisdair for his collaboration in defining the tx prefix for text classes!
