Feature Targeting

MDC Feature Targeting provides infrastructure to allow CSS styles to be included or excluded categorically.

Most of the time, you shouldn't need to depend on mdc-feature-targeting directly. However, understanding it can be useful if you're interested in having more control over when certain types of MDC styles are emitted.

Installation

npm install @loipham/material-feature-targeting

Basic Usage

Styles

Authoring component styles:

@use "@loipham/material-feature-targeting";

@mixin my-component-core-styles($query: feature-targeting.all()) {
  $feat-structure: feature-targeting.create-target($query, structure);

  @include feature-targeting.targets($feat-structure) {
    // ...
  }
}

Consuming component styles:

@use "@loipham/material-feature-targeting";
@use "my-component-mixins";

// To include all styles (using the default of mdc-feature-all() defined above):
@include my-component-core-styles;

// Or, to include a specific subset of styles:
@include my-component-core-styles(structure);
@include my-component-core-styles(feature-targeting.any(color, typography));
// The above two @includes and the following @include would produce equivalent results:
@include my-component-core-styles(feature-targeting.without(animation));
