Super easy to use Sass mixins to establish a typographic system with modular scale and vertical rhythm. Based on the Gridlover app.
Gridlover gives you adjustable css for font sizes, line heights and margins. The default css output is for body, p and h1 - h4 headings, but you can of course apply your adjusted values to any element by editing the css later.
Go play around with the awesome Gridlover app!
It's so much fun! :D
Sassy-Gridlover consists of 3 configurable variables:
$baseFontSize;
$baseLineHeight;
$scaleFactor;and 3 mixins:
@mixin sassy-gridlover-body();
@mixin sassy-gridlover-heading();
@mixin sassy-gridlover-margins();These are the 3 functionalities of the Gridlover app that you (should) have been playing with.
Import _sassy-gridlover.scss to your main style sheet.
@import "sassy-gridlover";Change the configurable variables values in _config.scss to your liking.
// Scale factor variables.
// Don't change these variables!
