Project Clarity is an open source design system that brings together UX guidelines, an HTML/CSS framework, and Angular 2 components. This repository includes everything you need to build, customize, test, and deploy Clarity. For complete documentation, visit the Clarity website.
Clarity is published as three npm packages:
- clarity-icons. Contains the custom element icons.
- clarity-ui. Contains the static styles for building HTML components.
- clarity-angular. Contains the Angular 2 components. This package depends on clarity-ui for styles.
The easiest way to run a sample Angular 2 application with Clarity is to use the Clarity Seed.
If you already have an Angular 2 application, you can follow the installation steps below to include and use Clarity in your application.
-
Install Clarity Icons package through npm:
npm install clarity-icons --save
-
Install the polyfill for Custom Elements:
npm install @webcomponents/[email protected] --save
-
(Optional) If your application supports IE10, the polyfill will require the MutationObserver shim to work. If your application doesn't support IE10, you can skip the following installation:
npm install [email protected] --save
-
Include the clarity-icons.min.css and clarity-icons.min.js in your HTML. As custom-elements.min.js is dependent on the Custom Elements polyfill, make sure to include it before clarity-icons.min.js. Also, if your app needs to support IE10, include the mutationobserver.min.js before the polyfill:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/node_modules/clarity-icons/clarity-icons.min.css"> <script src="path/to/node_modules/mutationobserver-shim/dist/mutationobserver.min.js"></script> <script src="path/to/node_modules/@webcomponents/custom-elements/custom-elements.min.js"></script> <script src="path/to/node_modules/clarity-icons/clarity-icons.min.js"></script>
If your site is built with angular-cli you can achieve the above by adding the files to the styles array and scripts array in
angular-cli.json
:"styles": [ ... "../node_modules/clarity-icons/clarity-icons.min.css", ... ], "scripts": [ ... "../node_modules/mutationobserver-shim/dist/mutationobserver.min.js", "../node_modules/@webcomponents/custom-elements/custom-elements.min.js", "../node_modules/clarity-icons/clarity-icons.min.js" ... ]
-
Install Clarity UI package through npm:
npm install clarity-ui --save
-
Include the clarity-ui.min.css in your HTML file:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/node_modules/clarity-ui/clarity-ui.min.css">
If your site is built with angular-cli, you can achieve the above by adding the file to the styles array in
angular-cli.json
:"styles": [ ... "../node_modules/clarity-ui/clarity-ui.min.css" ... ]
-
Write your HTML with the Clarity CSS class names and markup.
-
Follow steps above to install Clarity Icons and Clarity UI.
-
Install the clarity-angular package through npm:
npm install clarity-angular --save
-
Import the ClarityModule into your Angular 2 application's module. Your application's main module might look like this:
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { ClarityModule } from 'clarity-angular'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; @NgModule({ imports: [ BrowserModule, ClarityModule.forRoot(), .... ], declarations: [ AppComponent ], bootstrap: [ AppComponent ] }) export class AppModule { }
If your application uses systemjs, add the clarity-angular configuration as in the example below.
System.config({ ... map: { ... 'clarity-angular': 'node_modules/clarity-angular/clarity-angular.umd.js', }, ... });
