README.md

NOTE I now use the conventions detailed in the SUIT framework

Template Components

Used to provide structural templates.

Pattern

t-template-name
t-template-name--modifier-name
t-template-name__subcomponent-name--subcomponent-modifier-name

Examples

t-icon
t-icon--large

t-btn
t-btn--large

t-media
t-media__img
t-media__img--large
t-media__opt
t-media__body

State Components

Used to indicate the state of a component

Pattern

is-state-type

Examples

is-hidden
is-collapsed
is-expanded
is-selected

JavaScript Components

Used to provide JS-only hooks for a component. Can be used to provide a JS-enhanced UI or to abstract other JS behaviours.

Pattern

js-action-name

Examples

js-submit
js-action-save
js-ui-collapsible
js-ui-dropdown
js-ui-dropdown--control
js-ui-dropdown--menu
js-ui-carousel

About theming Components

Could reuse the Template Component naming convention, for example:

specific-name
specific-name--modifier-name
specific-name__subcomponent-name
specific-name__subcomponent-name--subcomponent-modifier-name

Or just let anything go.

html-example.html

<!-- 
What if we used more white-space around class values? 
Does it make the code more readable and surface/separate the components 
among the rest of the info in the HTML?
-->

<div class=" t-unit  t-media ">
    <div class=" t-media__img ">
        <a href="#">
            <img class=" product-img " src="http://example.com" alt="">
        </a>
    </div>
    <form class=" t-media__opt  js-action-rate ">
        <button class=" product-rating " type="submit">
            <div class=" product-rating__panel ">
                <span class=" product-rating__points ">
                    5
                </span>
                <span class=" product-rating__label ">
                    upvotes
                </span>
            </div>
            <strong class=" product-rating__action  t-btn  btn-normal ">
                Upvote
            </strong>
        </button>
    </form>
    <div class=" t-media__body ">
        <h2 class=" h2 ">
            <a href="#">Product title</a>
        </h2>
        <p>[content]</p>
        <ul class=" t-uilist--hz ">
            <li><a class=" tag " href="#">tag name</a></li>
            <li><a class=" tag " href="#">tag name</a></li>
            <li><a class=" tag " href="#">tag name</a></li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>
