reelyActive Web Style Guide

Style guide for reelyActive webpages and web apps, based on Bootstrap 5. Everything is open source and MIT License. We believe in an open Internet of Things.

Web Style Guide Screenshot

A webpage template based on this style guide is available at reelyactive.github.io/web-style-guide/, including the following additional example pages:

Quick Start

Clone this repository (ex: click the Code button above and Download as ZIP).

Edit any of the index.html files in your favourite editor (ex: Notepad, TextEdit).

Open/refresh the index.html file in your favourite browser to see the results.

All of the supporting JavaScripts (JS) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are pre-built and included in the file structure below.

File Structure

The files are organised in the following hierarchy:

Directory File(s) Description
/ .html All the content
/images/ .jpg, .png, etc. All images and graphics supporting the content
/style/ .css All the cascading style sheets (Bootstrap)
/js/ .js All the JavaScripts (Bootstrap & Font Awesome)

The core files are as follows:

File Purpose
/index.html The webpage or web application content
/images/reelyactive-logo-nav.png The logo in the top-left corner
/js/boostrappyactive.bundle.min.js reelyActivated Bootstrap 5 JS
/js/fontawesome-reelyactive.min.js reelyActive's subset of Font Awesome
/style/bootstrappyactive.min.css reelyActivated Bootstrap 5 CSS

Building Bootstrap and Font Awesome

This step is only required when customising the scss or icons!

Install the devDependencies, with the following executable from the command line:

  • sass
  • cleancss (clean-css-cli)
  • webpack
  • npm-run-all

Then build (and minify) the Bootstrap 5 CSS with:

npm run css

Then build the Bootstrap 5 JS with:

npm run js

Then build (and minify) the Font Awesome subset with:

npm run fa

The built files are copied to the /js and /style directories.

Bootstrap 5 Colour Modes

Version 1.3 of this web-style-guide adopts Bootstrap 5.3 which supports Color Modes (aka Themes). By including the js/color-modes.js module, which is adapted from twbs/examples/color-modes, the prefers-color-scheme variable is detected from the browser to automatically switch between light/dark mode. A manual override is provided in the top nav bar of the examples in this style guide, which uses Font Awesome rather than Bootstrap icons, hence the modification of js/color-modes.js.
