Orbit Mission

Orbit aims to bring order and consistency to all of our products and processes. We elevate user experience and increase the speed and efficiency of how we design and build products.

Installation

orbit-components are served as an npm package.

Add them to your project by running:

// with npm
npm install @kiwicom/orbit-components

// with yarn
yarn add @kiwicom/orbit-components

Don't forget to install the styled-components ^4.0.0 also.

1. Import fonts that are used in orbit-components:

<link
  href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,400i,500,500i,700"
  rel="stylesheet"
/>

Or via CSS:

@import url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,400i,500,500i,700");

2. Include any of our components in your project and use it:

If you want to use custom theme or dictionary inside your project, it's necessary to wrap your app into <ThemeProvider>. See this document for more information.
