Overview
The BEEQ Design System is a collection of components implemented in a core library, as well as framework-specific wrappers for Angular and React. It offers a set of ready-to-use components that can be used in different technology stacks. The system is published to the NPM package manager registry, making it easy to integrate into projects. The BEEQ Design System also provides a component generator to quickly create new components. Overall, it aims to provide a streamlined and efficient way to develop and extend components within a design system.
Features
- Core library: A collection of elements/components implemented in the BEEQ Design System.
- Angular wrapper: A framework-specific wrapper for the BEEQ core library, specifically for Angular projects.
- React wrapper: A framework-specific wrapper for the BEEQ core library, specifically for ReactJS projects.
- Easy integration: The BEEQ components are published to the NPM package manager registry, making it simple to include them in projects.
- Extensive documentation: Detailed usage instructions and component APIs are provided, along with variations for each component.
- Multiple technology stack support: The BEEQ Design System currently supports Angular and React, with plans to add integration for Vue and Svelte in the future.
- Component generator: The BEEQ Design System includes a generator that automates the creation of new component skeletons.
- Testing support: BEEQ uses Jest for unit tests and Jest with Puppeteer for end-to-end tests, ensuring reliable and robust components.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- Vite
Vite is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and leaner development experience for modern web projects
- Vue
Vue.js is a lightweight and flexible JavaScript framework that allows developers to easily build dynamic and reactive user interfaces. Its intuitive syntax, modular architecture, and focus on performance make it a popular choice for modern web development.
- Tailwind
Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework that provides pre-defined classes for building responsive and customizable user interfaces.
- UI Kits & Components
A UI kit provides developers with a set of reusable components that can be easily integrated into a website or application. These components are pre-designed with consistent styling and functionality, allowing developers to save time and effort in the design and development process. UI kits can be either custom-built or third-party, and often include components for buttons, forms, typography, icons, and more.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Postcss
PostCSS is a popular open-source tool that enables web developers to transform CSS styles with JavaScript plugins. It allows for efficient processing of CSS styles, from applying vendor prefixes to improving browser compatibility, ultimately resulting in cleaner, faster, and more maintainable code.
- Storybook
Storybook is a tool for developing and testing UI components in isolation. It provides a sandbox environment where you can experiment with different props and states to see how your component responds.
- Stylelint
Stylelint is a modern linter for CSS that helps you avoid errors and enforce consistent styling conventions. It provides rules for detecting errors and warnings, and can be configured to match your specific project's requirements.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
- Web Components
Web components provide a way to create reusable, encapsulated UI components using standard web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. They allow developers to create complex UI components that can be easily shared across multiple projects and frameworks. Web components are built using four main specifications: Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, HTML Templates, and ES Modules.
