Cutestrap v2

Docs/Demo

Installation Steps

To use the CSS as it is, you can install using npm or just download cutestrap.zip:

npm i cutestrap

Development guide

After cloning, you'll first need to install dependencies by running npm run setup.

After that just run npm start.

KSS will generate the docs from the kss-html folder. The dist folder is created from the src folder.

Contributors

Contributors are welcome, just follow these few guidelines:

  • Avoid checking in compiled files (dist and docs folders) as this will reduce merge conflicts with master
  • Pass stylelint checks

License Authentication

All versions below 2.* are licensed under the MIT License, while everything after is GPLv3.

If you would like to use Cutestrap in non GPLv3 projects, you may make a donation to charity and I'll grant you an MIT license.

If you disagree, I'm open to discussion and we can talk about it on this thread where I've established my initial thoughts.

    Use of implicit labels is considered bad accessibility

    Recent accessibility standards recommend using explicit labels with form elements. in order to achieve this use the for attribute in the label pointing to the id of the field.

    Wrapping the label around the input creates an implicit label, and while not wrong, has inconsistent performance among assistive technology, like screen readers.

    Current Cutestrap form HTML is

    <label class="textfield">
          <input type="text">
          <span class="textfield__label">Your Name</span>
        </label>
    

    I'm recommending modifying the suggested code to be:

    <div class="textfield">
        <label for="name">  
          <span class="textfield__label">Your Name</span>
        </label>
        <input type="text" id="name">
    </div>

    reintroduce underline on .btn--link

    as .btn:link is more specific than .btn--link, the text-decoration: none there currently overrides the intended text-decoration: underline. moving the style to .btn fixes this, allowing for <button class="btn--link">...</button> and <a href="..." class="btn btn--link">...</a> to look like actual large links (with underline)

    Errors installing dependencies for development

    When installing the node_modules for this project, there were several errors thrown during the npm install:

    npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: graceful-fs v3.0.0 and before will fail on node releases >= v7.0. Please update to graceful-fs@^4.0.0 as soon as possible. Use 'npm ls graceful-fs' to find it in the tree.

    npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: graceful-fs v3.0.0 and before will fail on node releases >= v7.0. Please update to graceful-fs@^4.0.0 as soon as possible. Use 'npm ls graceful-fs' to find it in the tree.

    npm WARN prefer global [email protected] should be installed with -g
    npm WARN prefer global [email protected] should be installed with -g
    

    Then, when bower install in run, this is thrown:

    (node:8568) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.
    

    Finally, gulp fails as well:

    (node:8632) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.
    module.js:442

    I'm not sure how much of this you have control over and how much is just a result of dependencies and their messiness. Would it worth trying other (older) node versions perhaps, or are there other things that should be installed (locally or globally)?

    Text link not accessible

    The text link is not fully accessible since it relies on color alone to denote that it's a link.

    Suggestion 1: return the underline. (highly recommended)

    Suggestion 2: provide more visual affordance that the standalone text is a link such as adding an icon.

    WCAG references: http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/#visual-audio-contrast-without-color http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/F73.html

    PS: Since this is a link, strange that it's listed under Buttons and the class names say button.

    Default contextual colors?

    I like this project, and would love to use this in future proof-of-concepts I build. I noticed though that there doesn't seem to be a built-in way to set the color of elements based on context, like in Bootstrap where you can for example set btn-danger on a delete-button.

    It's easy to add yourself in your project, but from a UX point of view I feel like it might be too important to not include as a default. Do you agree? It would also help for those who just want a good-looking proof-of-concept without having to add custom CSS.

    I'd suggest using the same classes for all elements to keep it consistent, perhaps ctx-primary, ctx-success, ctx-warning, etc? I can try making a pull request if you think this is a good idea to add.

    Select arrow not clickable

    The css arrow in select boxes (.field select+.label::after) is not clickable (Chrome, Firefox, others). This is an issue to users who aim for that very arrow when trying to use the menu, and give up if that doesn't work (a behavior seen in real usage testing).

    I think the solution might be as easy as adding an pointer-events: none; (well, not for Internet Explorer, but Cutestrap forms don't really work with IE anyway)

    remove dd text indent

    removes the text indent on dd, which causes very unsightly visual effect when the definition description is multiline (see example screenshot below)

    before:

    cute-dd-current

    after:

    cute-dd-fix

    alternatively, suggest changing from text-indent to padding-left, which would then move all dd content to the right, not just the beginning of each line.

    alternative:

    cute-dd-alt

    Why are `` elements given `display: table;`?

    On one hand I'm just curious what the design choice here was about; on the other hand there's an issue when there's an <img> element within a container with .ta-center/.ta-right -- the image won't respect the text alignment. This can be worked around however by setting appropriate margins on the image:

    .ta-center img {
      margin-left: auto;
      margin-right: auto;
    }
    
    .ta-right img {
      margin-left: auto;
    }

    /src/sass/ mis-match with /dist/scss/

    The two sets of source files are slightly out of sync. Namely...

    • dd padding/text-indent in _base.scss;
    • margins and classnames for .wrapper-large and .wrapper-small in _grid.scss; and
    • padding on .radio and .checkbox in _forms.scss.

    It looks like /dist/scss/ is the canonical version, but then what's the point of the /src/sass/ directory?

    Should tag names be included in style definitions?

    I really like the minimalism of Cutestrap, but I have found myself fighting with the button styling when trying to use semantic markup in my nav elements. I was recently reading through BEM naming conventions and noticed that it specifies "No tag name or ids" for CSS selectors. Conversely, Cutestrap docs state that "A default button is applied with the .btn class or automatically on button tags or button/submit inputs."

    Is this implementation of tag styling in Cutestrap intentional? Am I referencing incorrect documentation for BEM?

  • 11

    should wrapper-small be renamed?

    I thought wrapper-small should be replaced with wrapper wrapper--small

    even the inline docs hint at this <div class="wrapper {{modifier_class}}">Wrapper</div>
