Carbon Components React

A collection of Carbon Components implemented using React.

Usage

List of Available Components

View available React Components here. Usage information is available when you click the blue ? icon in the top right corner of the selected component.

Getting Started

Run the following command using npm:

npm install -S carbon-components-react carbon-components carbon-icons

If you prefer Yarn, use the following command instead:

yarn add carbon-components-react carbon-components carbon-icons

1. These components require the use of Webpack in your project. See our webpack.config.js for an example configuration.

2. Components do not import any of the styles themselves, use the scss or css from carbon-components to bring in styling. You can also use the unpkg cdn to bring in the styles wholesale - unpkg.com/carbon-components/css/carbon-components.css aliases the latest css file.

3. For older browsers (e.g. IE11), polyfills listed in carbon-components-react/.storybook/polyfills.js file is required.

If you just want to try out carbon-components-react, you can also use CodeSandbox.

Development

Please refer to the Contribution Guidelines before starting any work.

Using the server

We recommend the use of React Storybook for developing components.

1. (Optional) Set environment variables:

   • true to CARBON_USE_EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES environment variable to test some of the experimental features:

     $ export CARBON_USE_EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES=true
     

   • true to CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_EXTERNAL_CSS environment variable to use external CSS, making style source link usable in DOM inspector:

     $ export CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_EXTERNAL_CSS=true
     

   • true to CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_STYLE_SOURCEMAP environment variable to use Sass source map, making style source link point to the original Sass code:

     $ export CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_STYLE_SOURCEMAP=true
     

Caveats:

• CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_EXTERNAL_CSS=true and CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_STYLE_SOURCEMAP=true make WebPack builds slightly slower.
• With CARBON_REACT_STORYBOOK_USE_STYLE_SOURCEMAP=true, the source map (hitting style source link in DOM inspector) sometimes leads you to a mix-in, instead of a style rule calling the mix-in, which may get you lost.

2. Start the server:

   $ yarn storybook
   

3. Open browser to http://localhost:9000/.

4. Develop components in their respective folders (/components or /internal).

5. Write stories for your components in /.storybook.
