For further information on this and other components, refer to [The Brightspace UI Guide](https://github.com/BrightspaceUI/guide/wiki). ## Installation `d2l-typography` can be installed from [Bower][bower-url]: ```shell bower install d2l-typography ``` ## Typography Styles The following typography styles are available for use in your application: ### Standard Body "Standard Body" can be used to apply base font properties, but will also respond to viewport width changes.  ### Compact Body Compact body is a smaller version of the standard body style, for use in areas that prefer to be conservative with the amount of real estate used by text.  The compact style is not recommended for blocks of readable text, particularly in paragraph form. Rather, it is best employed for brief informative text or calls to action. ### Small Body Never used by itself; always in support of another piece of content on the page. Used for inline assistive text in forms, and for specifying metadata or properties of an existing piece of content.  ### Label Text Used for labels. Its font size/line spacing is relative to the root font and respond to viewport width changes.  ### Headings There are four available heading styles. These would typically be applied to the `

`, `

`, `

` and `

` HTML elements, though it's not a requirement.  ## Usage Typography fonts and styles can be applied using either [Polymer](https://www.polymer-project.org/1.0/) or [Sass](http://sass-lang.com/) mixins. Which one you use depends on your technology stack and comfort with each, however since Sass compiles to native CSS it's more performant. ### Sass Import the main `d2l-typography.scss` file into your application's Sass. Then call the `d2l-typography-font-face()` mixin to define the web fonts and apply the `d2l-typography()` mixin to your `` element: ```sass @import 'bower_components/d2l-typography/d2l-typography.scss'; @include d2l-typography-font-face(); body { @include d2l-typography(); } ``` Mixins are also available for standard body, compact body, small body and heading styles: ```sass .standard { @include d2l-body-standard(); } .compact { @include d2l-body-compact(); } .small { @include d2l-body-small(); } .label { @include d2l-label-text(); } h1 { @include d2l-heading-1(); } h2 { @include d2l-heading-2(); } h3 { @include d2l-heading-3(); } h4 { @include d2l-heading-4(); } ``` ### Polymer Include the [webcomponents.js](http://webcomponents.org/polyfills/) "lite" polyfill (for browsers who don't natively support web components), import `d2l-typography.html`, and include `d2l-typography` in a custom style block: ```html ``` The `d2l-typography` class can be used to set base font properties, typically applied to the `` element. ```html ... ``` Additional CSS classes are available for standard body, compact body, small body and headings: ```html

...

...

Lorem Ipsum

``` ### Responsive Breakpoint The fonts for headings, standard body, and compact body will all be styled to be smaller at a responsive breakpoint, defined as when the viewport width is 615px or smaller. ### Note About Font Size Normally within Brightspace, the user-configured base font size will automatically be present, and requires no additional work to opt-in. However, if your application exists outside of Brightspace, you should set your desired font size on the `` element. The default recommended size is `20px`: ```css html { font-size: 20px; } ``` ## Coding styles See the [Best Practices & Style Guide](https://github.com/Brightspace/valence-ui-docs/wiki/Best-Practices-&-Style-Guide) for information on naming conventions, plus information about the [EditorConfig](http://editorconfig.org) rules used in this repo.
