Library Options

Overview of Basis extension library options

Overview

When using Basis, you have two library options to choose from in the extension.

Visually, both libraries are the same.

The primary differences:

• Foundation Library is linked to element, color, and type styles. To use this library, you need to create an app with the Foundation Template

• Unstyled Library is only linked to your apps core color styles. It is not linked to element styles or type styles.

You'll also noticed the Libary switcher dropdown. I recommend using the latest version 1.1.

1.0 and 1.1 are visually very similar, 1.1 is much more cleaned up and organzed.

Which library should I use?

• If you're using Basis with an existing app that was not created with the Basis Foundation template, use the Default library!

• If you're starting a new app, we recommend using the Basis Foundation template. This ensure all elements are linked to styles, which makes customization much easer!
