🚨 This works in production now (yehaw) but LOTS of optimizing and docs to write.

UnoCSS Preset Nye

UnoCSS Preset for fluid typography and grid-based spacing. Naming based on Tailwind. Built to make translating Figma grids and text specs really easy.

🗺️ Roadmap

Core

[ ] Full autocomplete coverage (Roughly 20% right now)
- [ ] Font Sizing

Grid

[ ] Framework-agnostic grid marker injection

Colors & Themes

[ ] Wide gamut color support
[ ] Configurable theme media queries

Typography

[ ] Extend Font Families configuration with font-family property
[ ] Rework fluid typography to respect user zoom
[ ] Configurable base font size for rem conversion (currently 10)

🛠️ Installation

Install with whichever package manager makes you happy.

npm i unocss-preset-nye

pnpm i unocss-preset-nye

yarn add unocss-preset-nye

Inside of your uno.config.ts file (at the root of your project):

import { defineConfig } from 'unocss'
import unoPresetNye from '@unocss-preset-nye'

export default defineConfig({
  presets: [unoPresetNye()], // Call the preset as a function
  // ... whatever other options your heart desires from the Uno docs.
})

        size: 24,
        uppercase: true,
      }

      ],
      outFile: "./src/styles/uno.css",
    },
  },
  // extractorDefault: extractorArbitrary,
});

Included Transformers and Extractors

These are already baked into this preset, you dont need to load them in again.

extractorArbitrary from @unocss/extractor-arbitrary-variants

Colors & Themes

Theming support out of the box with hex codes. Colors can be configured in 2 ways.

⚠️ Colors and Themes cannot be used together. If both are provided, themes will be ignored

Normal colors, no theming

  colors: {
    'yellow': '#fff000'
    'red': '#ff0000',
  }

Themed color sets

themes: {
  dark: {
    'yellow': '#fff000'
    'red': '#ff0000',
  },
  light {
    'yellow': '#fff000'
    'red': '#ff0000',
  }
}

🔀 Swithing themes

Themes are generated with html[data-theme="YourThemeName"] media queries. Setting a data attribute equal to your theme name on your html element will change themes.

🚧 Support for changing what kind of media queries are generated is planned.

Defaults

A few colors are always available, no matter what options you provide to the config:

Color	CSS Output
transparent	`transparent`
current	`currentColor`

If you don't specify any colors you will have these as your default (Please don't use these, Have some class.)

Color Mode

Choose which format color variables are created as. HSL or RGB.

🚧 P3 color support planned.

Option	Generated CSS
`hsl`	`hsl(var(--yourColorVar), var(--opacity-var))`
`rgb`	`hsl(rgb(--yourColorVar), var(--opacity-var))`

Devices

An object that defines sizes, gutters, margins, and columns for each breakpoint. Have as many objects as you like but each must have the following properties:

Property	Description	Type
columns	Number of columns	`number`
size	Pixel size of breakpoint	`number`
gutter	Pixel size of gutter in Figma	`number`
margin	Pixel size of margin in Figma	`number`

These properties are used in the Grid Preflight to create variables like var(--column). The grid created by this preset is generated to the spec you provide.

Font Sizes

An object used to generate classes like text-50 or text-12-caps. These are converted to rems on build. Provide px values. Each object must have the following properties:

Note: The key of each object can be a number or string. Example: 12 and '12-caps' are both valid.

Property	Description	Type
`size`	Pixel size of font	`number`
`line`	Line height of font (decimal)	`number` ex: 1.2 for 120%
`letter`	Letter spacing of font	`number` ex: .002 for 2% in Figma
`uppercase`	Is this text size all caps?	`boolean`, defaults to false

Example

{
  12: {
    size: 12,
    line: 1.4,
    letter: -.0015
  },
  '18-caps': {
    size: 18,
    line: 1.1,
    letter: 0.011,
  },
  50: {
    size: 50,
    line: 1.1,
    letter: -0.003,
  },
  62: {
    size: 62,
    letter: -0.01,
    line: 1.05,
  }
}

Font Families

Object declaring font families. These are converted to variables at build. Example: 'sans' becomes var(--sans).

Property	Description
family	Pixel size of font
type	`cursive`, `fantasy`, `monospace`, `serif`,`sans-serif`
letter	Letter spacing of font

Eases `ease-`

Define easings for transition-timing-function, defalts to this list of common eases.

Usage example: ease-quad-in

{
  'quad-in': 'cubic-bezier(0.26, 0, 0.6, 0.2)',
  'cubic-in': 'cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.68, 0.06)',

  bounce: 'cubic-bezier(0.175, 0.885, 0.32, 1.275)',
}

Generic Config

Grid-based Spacing

Allows classes like cols-5 and margin-mb-2 for spacing based on grid variables defined in the config.

A few examples:

Class	Output
`cols-3`	`width: calc(var(--column) * 3 + var(--gutter) * 2)`
`margin-pt-2`	`padding-top: calc(var(--margin) * 2)`
`gutter-mr-12`	`margin-right: calc(var(--gutter) * 12)`

These work for the follwing properties. These properties use the same naming as tailwing. Example: padding-top is pt- and width is w-.

⚠️ Width has 2 classes. w- and cols-. These act differently:

w-[number] Ouput: width: [number]rem

cols-[number] Ouput: width: calc((var(--cols) * [number]) - (var(--gutter) - [number - 1]))

Adding width to columns with spreads

Sometimes you might need an extra gutter or 2 to your column width. You can do this by adding another parameter to the end cols-[number]-[spread].

Spread keyword	Output
`wide`	+1 gutter
`wider`	+2 gutters
`narrow`	-1 gutter
`narrower`	-2 gutters

Behind the scenes: cols-4-wider is calc((var(--column) * 4) + (var(--gutter) * 5)). Without the -wider at the end, cols-4 is equivalent to calc((var(--column) * 4) + (var(--gutter) * 3))

margin-right margin-left margin-top margin-bottom margin padding top left right bottom inset padding-right padding-left padding-top padding-bottom min-width max-width width min-height max-height height scroll-padding scroll-margin scroll-padding-left scroll-padding-right scroll-margin-left scroll-margin-right scroll-padding-top scroll-padding-bottom scroll-margin-top scroll-margin-bottom text-indent column-gap row-gap gap gap-x gap-y indent

Shortcuts

Shortcut	Output
`flex-center`	`flex justify-center items-center`
`inline-flex-center`	`inline-flex justify-center items-center`

Media Queries

The media queries options default to the following:

Object	Output
`{ 'short': '(max-height: 700px)' }`	'@media screen and (max-height: 700px)'
