Style web applications using generated utility classes

benefit is a utility CSS-in-JS library that provides a set of low-level, configurable, ready-to-use styles.

Documentation

benefit is framework agnostic, use benefit-react for additional enhancements for React.

React-specific

Install dependencies

Add benefit-react to your project.

yarn add benefit-react

Setup transpilation

Set the jsx pragma at the top of your source file where you intend to use benefit-react.

Similar to a comment containing linter configuration, this configures the jsx babel plugin to use the jsx function instead of React.createElement.

JSX Pragma Documentation

Import the jsx function from benefit-react

/** @jsx jsx */
import { jsx } from "benefit-react"

Now, you're free to use any available utility classes to style your components

/** @jsx jsx */
import { jsx } from "benefit-react"

function MyComponent() {
  return (
    <div className="p-4 bg-orange-300 rounded">
      <p className="p-4 bg-white shadow rounded-sm">
        Williamsburg stumptown iPhone, gastropub vegan banh mi
        microdosingpost-ironic pok pok +1 bespoke dreamcatcher bushwick brunch.
      </p>
    </div>
  )
}

Framework agnostic

Add benefit to your project.

yarn add benefit

Import and use the createBenefit function to create your utility classes

import { createBenefit } from "benefit"

const { styleWith } = createBenefit()

Use styleWith(...) to pass in utility classes

<div class={styleWith("p-4 bg-white text-blue-700")}>
  ...
</div>
