Using Vanilla

Hotlinking

You can link to the latest build to add directly into your markup like so, by replacing the x values with the version number you wish to link.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/vanilla-framework-version-x.x.x.min.css" />

Including Vanilla in your project via NPM or yarn

To get set up with Sass, add the sass and vanilla-framework packages to your project dependencies:

yarn add sass vanilla-framework

In the script that builds the CSS in your package.json, you should include the path to node_modules when looking for @imports. In this example, we have called the build script "build-css":

"build-css": "sass -w --load-path=node_modules src:dist --style=compressed"

Make a folder src/, create a file inside called style.scss and import Vanilla:

// Import the theme
@import 'vanilla-framework';
@include vanilla;

// Optionally override some settings
$color-brand: #ffffff;

// Add theme if applicable

If you don't want the whole framework, you can just @include specific parts - e.g. @include vf-b-forms.

Now run yarn build-css, which will convert any Sass files in the src/ folder to CSS in the dist/ folder.

To watch for changes in your Sass files, add the following script to your package.json

"watch-css":  "yarn build-css && sass --load-path=node_modules -w src:dist --style=compressed"
