Installation

Browsers

CSS

<head>
    ...
    <link
        rel="stylesheet"
        href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@govtechsg/sgds@{{site.version}}/css/sgds.css"
    />

JavaScript

Certain components of SGDS makes use of sgds.js, with jQuery as an external dependency. If you only need the visual parts of SGDS, or if you are using frontend frameworks like React, you do not need to import this.

    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@govtechsg/sgds@{{site.version}}/js/sgds.js"></script>

NPM

$ npm i @govtechsg/sgds

Webpack

import "@govtechsg/sgds/css/sgds.css";
import "@govtechsg/sgds/js/sgds"; // Do not use with other web frameworks*

Frontend frameworks

Usage with frameworks such as React, Vue or Angular is discouraged since they manipulate the DOM in their own environments. Framework-specific implementations are in early development and can be found at sgds-govtech-react and sgds-govtech-vue.

Usage

See docs.

Development

Requirements

Ruby & Bundler. Install Jekyll and dependencies through bundle install
Nodejs & NPM. Install webpack and dependencies through npm install

To spin up a live-reloading Jekyll + Webpack development server it is recommended that you use two separate terminal sessions so that you can kill any of them easily:

# Terminal 1
$ npm run dev:static

# Terminal 2
$ npm run dev:jekyll # Access from localhost:4000
