V1 Release

[chrisrzhou]

Goals

• Significantly simplify and streamline APIs and concepts (remove unimportant methods, improve names/interfaces)
• Remove opinionated defaults (e.g. default theme spec).
• Improve types (promote static usage of uinix-ui while offering dynamic/friendly hooks)
• Improve docs
• Improve tests and coverage

New Features

• New configuration (enableCssVariables, namespace).
• load API now returns a cleanup function (i.e. "unload").

Breaking Changes

Removed

• Remove styles.typography (also removes rendering font support).
  • Rendering styles.typography.fontFaces is naturally removed (consumers should handle rendering/loading fonts).
  • styles.typography.global is naturally removed (just use globalStyles`).
  • useTypographyVariant hook is naturally removed.
  • Text.variant no longer reads from styles.typography.variants and simply reads from styles.variants.
• Remove default theme spec (consumers must explicitly provide one).
• Remove unvaluable create* methods (e.g. createStyles, createTheme, createIcons, createConfig).
• merge util removed, install or import from uinix-fp instead.
• Remove all use* hooks (it's better for consumers to directly access their system statically).

Changed

• styles.breakpoints is now moved to config.responsiveBreakpoints.
• styles.global is renamed to globalStyles.
• Icon no longer conditionally renders as button or div (consumers now control this).
• createSystem is removed and load is renamed to createSystem.
• useVariant hook is renamed to useStyleVariant.
• styles.variants is removed. useStyleVariant hook directly accesses styles rules.
• Components
  • variant prop is renamed to styleVariant (interoperable with styles, styleProps props).
  • Style prop precedence now follows with the following importance: style < styleVariant < styles < shorthandProp

uinix-theme@1.1.0 has been released, which can further narrow the responsibility of uinix-ui to simply integrate against the system of four components.

V1's API has been reduced and finalized in https://github.com/uinix-js/uinix-ui/blob/c2d7f40076f2764d14830d57b3161ed71e710634/index.js.

This greatly minimized API facilitates upcoming internal tasks:

• Update types
• Update tests
• Update docs
• Draft migration guide to @1 in Github release notes.
