Parameters (Variables)

colors

  • Type: Record<string, string>
  • Default: colors.dark

A map of color variables. The keys of these variables can be used as values to color-based style properties such as color, backgroundColor, borderColor, etc on components.

By default, it uses the built-in FrogUI colors.

export const { Box } = createSystem({
  colors: {
    text: '#000000',
    background: '#ffffff',
    blue: '#0070f3',
    green: '#00ff00',
    red: '#ff0000',
    orange: '#ffaa00',
  }
})
 
function Example() {
  return <Box backgroundColor="
background
text
blue
red
green
orange
}

fonts

  • Type: Record<string, Font[]>

A map of font variables. The keys of these variables will be used as values to the fontFamily property on components.

export const { Box } = createSystem({
  fonts: {
    default: [
      {
        name: 'Open Sans',
        source: 'google',
        weight: 400,
      },
      {
        name: 'Open Sans',
        source: 'google',
        weight: 600,
      },
    ],
    madimi: [
      {
        name: 'Madimi One',
        source: 'google',
      },
    ],
  },
})
 
function Example() {
  return <Box fontFamily="
default
madimi
}

fontSizes

  • Type: Record<string, number>
  • Default: fontSizes

A map of font size variables. The keys of these variables will be used as values to the fontSize property on components.

The values are relative to the dimensions of the frame (e.g. 0.01 is 1% of the larger frame dimension).

By default, it uses the built-in FrogUI font size variables.

export const { Box } = createSystem({
  fontSizes: {
    small: 0.01875,
    medium: 0.03125,
    large: 0.04375,
  }
})
 
function Example() {
  return <Box fontSize="
small
medium
large
}

frame

  • Type: { height?: number, width?: number }
  • Default: inferred

The dimensions of the frame. If not specified, then it will be inferred from the Frog instance.

export const system = createSystem({
  frame: {
    height: 1024,
    width: 1024,
  }
})

icons

  • Type: Record<string, string>
  • Default: lucide

Icon collection to use for resolving icons. The following collections are available:

export const system = createSystem({
  icons: lucide,
})

See Icon for more information on using icons.

units

  • Type: Record<string, number>

A map of unit variables. The keys of these variables will be used as values to the unit-based properties (padding, margin, borderWidth, etc) properties on components.

The values are relative to the dimensions of the frame (e.g. 0.01 is 1% of the larger frame dimension).

By default, it uses the built-in FrogUI unit variables.

export const { Box } = createSystem({
  units: {
    small: 0.01,
    medium: 0.02,
    large: 0.03,
  }
})

  return <Box padding="
small
medium
