Bulma

An introduction to using Bulma with Campsite.

Introduction to Bulma with Campsite

Bulma is a modern CSS framework based on Flexbox that provides a set of responsive and customizable components to help you build websites quickly. CampsiteJS makes it easy to integrate Bulma into your projects, providing a seamless development experience.

Installing Bulma in Campsite

To get started with Bulma in your CampsiteJS project, follow these steps:

1. Install Bulma: Use npm or yarn to install Bulma and its dependencies.

   npm install bulma
   

   or

   yarn add bulma
   

2. Import Bulma Styles: In your main CSS file (e.g., src/styles/main.css), import Bulma’s CSS.

   @import 'bulma/css/bulma.min.css';
   

3. Initialize Bulma JavaScript: Bulma is a CSS-only framework and does not require JavaScript initialization. You can directly use its classes in your HTML or templating files.

Using Bulma in Your CampsiteJS Project

To use Bulma in your CampsiteJS project, simply add Bulma’s classes to your HTML or templating files. For example, you can create a button with Bulma classes like this:

<button class="button is-primary">
  Click Me
</button>

Customizing Bulma

You can customize Bulma by modifying the _variables.sass file in your CampsiteJS project. This allows you to change default variables such as colors, typography, and spacing. For example, to change the primary color, you can do the following:

$primary: #1DA1F2
@import 'bulma/bulma.sass';

Building Your CSS and JavaScript

CampsiteJS automatically processes your Bulma CSS during the build process. You can run the development server with:

npm run dev

This will watch for changes in your CSS and HTML files, allowing you to see updates in real-time. When you’re ready to build your site for production, use:

npm run build

This will compile and optimize your CSS and JavaScript for deployment.
