Usage

Object Literal Syntax

import styled from 'nano-style'
 
const Button = styled('button')(props => ({
  fontFamily: 'inherit',
  fontSize: '14px',
  fontWeight: props.theme.bold,
  lineHeight: 16/14,
  display: 'inline-block',
  margin: 0,
  paddingLeft: props.theme.space[3] + 'px',
  paddingRight: props.theme.space[3] + 'px',
  paddingTop: props.theme.space[2] + 'px',
  paddingBottom: props.theme.space[2] + 'px',
  verticalAlign: 'middle',
  textAlign: 'center',
  textDecoration: 'none',
  borderRadius: props.theme.radius,
  border: 0,
  appearance: 'none',
  color: 'white',
  backgroundColor: props.theme.colors.blue,
  '&:hover': {
    boxShadow: `inset 0 0 0 999px ${darken(1/8)}`
  },
  '&:focus': {
    outline: 0,
    boxShadow: `0 0 0 2px ${props.theme.colors.blue}`
  },
  '&:active': {
    boxShadow: `inset 0 0 8px ${darken(1/4)}`
  },
  '&:disabled': {
    opacity: 1/4
  }
}))

CSS Syntax

import styled from 'nano-style/css'
 
const Button = styled('button')`
  font-family: inherit;
  font-size: 14px;
  font-weight: ${props => props.theme.bold};
  line-height: ${16/14};
  display: inline-block;
  margin: 0;
  padding-left: ${props => props.theme.space[3] + 'px'};
  padding-right: ${props => props.theme.space[3] + 'px'};
  padding-top: ${props => props.theme.space[2] + 'px'};
  padding-bottom: ${props => props.theme.space[2] + 'px'};
  vertical-align: middle;
  text-align: center;
  text-decoration: none;
  border-radius: ${props => props.theme.radius};
  border: 0;
  appearance: none;
  color: white;
  background-color: props.theme.colors.blue;
 
  &:hover {
    box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 999px ${darken(1/8)};
  }
 
  &:focus {
    outline: 0;
    box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px ${props => props.theme.colors.blue};
  }
 
  &:active {
    box-shadow: inset 0 0 8px ${darken(1/4)};
  }
 
  &:disabled {
    opacity: 1/4
  }
`

How it works

Using React 16's ability to return arrays of elements, nano-style generates CSS during component rendering and inserts CSS into a <style> element inlined with the component. The returned array looks something like this:

return [
  <Style css={css} />,
  <Component {...props} />
]

Caveats

Currently, this approach does not attempt to deduplicate repeated CSS when a single component is rendered in multiple instances. While this does work, it may present some slight performance issues when a component is used multiple times in a page.
