Migrate to vanilla-extract
Braid now uses vanilla-extract rather than treat to power its theme-based styling.
Since they use different file extensions (.css.ts
vs .treat.ts
), we're able to ease the migration by supporting both approaches simultaneously in the same project.
While we encourage you to write new CSS with vanilla-extract files and slowly migrate your existing treat files over time, the goal is to eventually remove treat entirely to enable further improvements to build tooling.
We've written a treat to vanilla-extract migration guide to make it easier when opting to migrate a treat file. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you need assistance with implementation or migration work, please reach out to us in the #braid-support
channel.
BREAKING CHANGE
React Portals containing Braid components/styles must use the new BraidPortal
component
CSS-based theming doesn't automatically cascade through React portals. The new BraidPortal
component handles this for you by forwarding Braid's CSS variables through the portal.
-import { createPortal } from 'react-dom'; +import { BraidPortal } from 'braid-design-system'; // ... -return open ? createPortal(<SomeComponent />) : null; +return open ? ( + <BraidPortal> + <SomeComponent /> + </BraidPortal> +) : null;
