Quick Start

Edit on Github

This page is here to help you quickly set up an example site powered by Atomizer.

Playground #

To create a basic Atomic project, clone the atomizer repo:

git clone git@github.com:acss-io/atomizer.git

then run our simple example dev server:

npm install
npm run examples

This should open a page in your browser at http://localhost:3000

Now try this:

  • Open the index page in a text editor
  • Edit, add, or remove Atomizer classes in the markup (get help from the reference page)
  • Save the file

The browser should reload the page, displaying all your changes. Check the atomic.css file to see that it only contains the rules for the classes that are being used in the project.

Configuration #

Atomizer allows you to define breakpoints, variables/custom values, and predefined classes in a JSON-formatted config file. Take a look at this example for more information on how configuration is used in Atomizer.
