This utility droid provides a set of single-purpose, responsive and functional utilities for writing CSS within the Galaxy.
These mixins were designed to map a CSS property and value to a class name and then add !important
to ensure they override all specificity. Every mixin written is meant to be responsive against a set of breakpoints that are provided. However those breakpoints can be overridden by passing in your own configuration.
$ npm install --save-dev @theholocron/starkiller
There are a few things that are provided with this library. At its core, this is a (S)CSS mixin library using dart-sass
modules. By default, mixins are available in a namespace based on the basename of the URL, so check out below for ways to import. Each of these will produce a CSS class that can then be used within your HTML.
// _index.scss
// include all utilities with 'starkiller' as the namespace
// calls all mixins and will include in CSS output
@use "./node_modules/@theholocron/starkiller/src" as starkiller;
// use all utilities with a different set of breakpoints
// calls all mixins and will include in CSS output
@use "./node_modules/@theholocron/starkiller/src" as starkiller with (
$breakpoints: (
"xs": "0",
"sm": "480px",
"md": "768px",
"lg": "1024px",
"xl": "1280px",
)
);
// include only a specific group of mixins
@use "@theholocron/starkiller/src/display" as *;
// call the mixins from this group
@include display();
@include visibility();
// use only a specific mixin
@use "@theholocron/starkiller/src/display/visibility";
// call the mixin you want to use
@include visibility();
// call the mixin you want, but override this breakpoints
@include visibility(
$breakpoints: (
"xs": "0",
"sm": "480px",
"md": "768px",
"lg": "1024px",
"xl": "1280px",
)
);
The previous examples are only a sample of what utilities are available.
If you only want the CSS, there are several configurations you can choose. The following uses unpkg as a CDN, so all of the rules apply to retrieving a specific version or file. But also provided in the dist
directory are a set of compiled CSS files in both compressed and non-compressed forms. The entire library is provided as well as each directories as described below.
- The
[@<semver>]
is an optional field that allows you to pick a specific version, or if you omit it will grab the latest tagged version. - The
[min]
is optional as well, but highly recommended if you're going to call the CSS file directly in your HTML, as its minified. - The
<type>
is a required field that allows one to pick a specific group to include or include the entire set. The following are allowed types:starkiller

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/@theholocron/starkiller[@<semver>]/dist/<type>.[min].css" />
Once you've determined how you're going to include the files, then copy the code below, swapping out the <property-name>
for one of the ones in a collection listed above (check each README for a list of the actual properties). By default the <property-name>
is not responsive, but if you add any one of the keywords (xs
, sm
, md
, lg
, xl
) preceded with a dash -
and combine it with -up
for sizes at that break point and up, or -down
for sizes at that breakpoint and down, or -only
for the range between that particularly break point, you can make it responsive.
<div class="<property-name>[-<breakpoint keyword>]">Text</div>
The best way to find out what's available is to check out the source code or test but you can also take a look at the-holocron.github.io/starkiller or the README which have been generated by SassDoc and sassdoc-to-markdown

This project uses a CHANGELOG and GitHub releases which contains a curated, chronologically ordered list of notable changes for each version of a project. Read more about changelogs.
We use SemVer for its versioning providing us an opt-in approach to releases. This means we add a version number according to the spec, as you see below. So rather than force developers to consume the latest and greatest, they can choose which version to consume and test any newer ones before upgrading. Please the read the spec as it goes into further detail.
Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:
- MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes.
- MINOR version when you add functionality in a backward-compatible manner.
- PATCH version when you make backward-compatible bug fixes.
Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format.
