Components

image

@trezor/product-components

  • A package with UI components that are product-oriented and can be shared across Suite, Connect, etc.
  • In their implementation, they usually use simpler primitives from @trezor/components

@trezor/components

  • Design primitives (a.k.a. LEGO building blocks) from which the rest of the application is composed.
  • More complex product-components are built from these components.

Using components

Don’t override components

  • We do not override components from @trezor/components
  • If necessary, we wrap them with our own wrapper component
  • If it makes sense, we request a modification or extension of the DS component in [@suite_usability_feedback](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN)
  • We have custom eslint rule that guards not overring components from @trezor/components and @trezor/product-components . Please neve use eslint ignore for this rule even though we have many of these suppressions in the app.
// BAD ❌
const StyledButton = styled(Button)`
    margin-left: 8px;
`;
...
<StyledButton>Hey!</StyledButton>

// SEMI-GOOD 🟠
// This solution is 100% good in the case when component doesn't allow you to change desired property (which is not case of `margin-left`)
const StyledButton = styled.div`
    margin-left: 8px;
`;
...
<Wrapper>
  <Button>Hey!</Button>
</Wrapper>

// GOOD ✅
<Button margin={{ left: 8 }}>Hey!</Button>

### Adding new components

- Do not add new components to `@trezor/components` without approval in the [[@suite_usability_feedback](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN)](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN) Slack channel
- If you need a new component, let us know in [[@suite_usability_feedback](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN)](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN) Slack channel, and we will help you

## Layout

- For layout, we use components like `Row`, `Column`, `Table`, `Grid`, and `List`
- For spacing, we use the `gap` prop
- Layout components support various props from `frameProps`, typically `margin`, `width`, or `height` . Typically you can find allowed props in storybook or types.
- Where possible, we use semantic HTML elements (e.g., `section`, `header`) for custom components

```jsx
// BAD ❌
const Row = styled.div`
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
  align-items: space-between;
  margin-top: 8px;
  margin-bottom: 4px;
`;
...
<Row>
  <div>Hola</div>
  <div>Hey</div>
</Row>

// GOOD ✅
import { Row } from '@trezor/components';
...
<Row alignItems="space-between" margin={{ top: 8, bottom: 4 }}>
  <div>Hola</div>
  <div>Hey</div>
</Row>

Design tokens / CSS

Component Colors via variant

  • For most DS components where it makes sense, it's possible to set a color. Primarily, we always use the variant prop, which sets the color according to predefined design variants. Sometimes it might be necessary to use a different color that isn't defined in the variants. In such cases, the color prop can be used, though it is generally considered deprecated.
  • The variants provide basic color settings: primary, secondary, tertiary, info, warning, destructive.

Typography

  • For all text elements, it is possible to set different typography. In the application, we have a predefined list of all used combinations, and we always use them in these combinations. You can choose from the following options:
// packages/theme/src/typography.ts

const typographyStylesBase = {
    titleLarge: {
        fontSize: 48,
        lineHeight: 53,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.medium,
        letterSpacing: 0.4,
    },
    titleMedium: {
        fontSize: 34,
        lineHeight: 37,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.medium,
        letterSpacing: 0.4,
    },
    titleSmall: {
        fontSize: 22,
        lineHeight: 32,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.medium,
        letterSpacing: -0.3,
    },
    highlight: {
        fontSize: 16,
        lineHeight: 24,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.semiBold,
        letterSpacing: -0.4,
    },
    body: {
        fontSize: 16,
        lineHeight: 24,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.medium,
        letterSpacing: -0.4,
    },
    callout: {
        fontSize: 14,
        lineHeight: 20,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.semiBold,
        letterSpacing: -0.3,
    },
    hint: {
        fontSize: 14,
        lineHeight: 20,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.medium,
        letterSpacing: -0.3,
    },
    label: {
        fontSize: 12,
        lineHeight: 18,
        fontWeight: fontWeights.medium,
        letterSpacing: -0.1,
    },
}

For all text, we use the Text or Paragraph components. Paragraph is a block-level text element and internally uses the Text component. These components also allow setting common font properties:

  • variant: Sets the text color based on the variant (cannot be used together with the color prop).
  • ~~color~~: (deprecated) allows setting a specific text color. Cannot be used with variant. Instead, the variant property should always be used.
  • typographyStyle: basically style from list above
  • textWrap: you can set how text should be wrapped, for example for not having orphans in the last line

Example:

// BAD: custom typography ❌
const CustomText = styled.div`
  font-size: 14px;
`
const CustomParagraph = styled.p`
  font-size: 14px;
`

<CustomText>I love Solana</CustomText>
<CustomParagraph>I love Bitcoin even more</CustomParagraph>

// BAD: using deprecated tokens ❌

const CustomText = styled.div`
  font-size: ${variables.FONT_SIZE.TINY};
`
const CustomParagraph = styled.p`
  font-size: ${variables.FONT_SIZE.TINY};
`

<CustomText>I love Solana</CustomText>
<CustomParagraph>I love Bitcoin even more</CustomParagraph>

// GOOD ✅
<Text typographyStyle="callout">I love Solana</Text>
<Paragraph typographyStyle="callout">I love Bitcoin even more</Paragraph>

Using design tokens

We try to use design tokens from @trezor/theme as much as possible. It improves consistency in the app and it’s also easier to refactor. We don’t allow non-standard values.

  • Spacings

    For all sizes in general (especially margins and paddings) we always use predefined sizes from spacings or spacingsPx.

    Example:

    //
// BAD ❌
//

// using in CSS ❌
const CustomComponent = styled.div`
	padding: 12px;
`

// Not using spacingsPx ❌
const CustomComponent = styled.div`
	padding: ${spacings.md}px;
`

// Using in prop  ❌
<Row margin={{ top: 123 }} gap={123}>
  ...
</Row>

//
// GOOD  ✅
//

import { spacings, spacingsPx } from '@trezor/theme';

// using in CSS ✅
const CustomComponent = styled.div`
	padding: ${spacingsPx.md};
`
// Using in prop ✅
<Row margin={{ top: spacings.md }} gap={spacings.md}>
  ...
</Row>

  • Borders

    We use predefined border radii and widths. You can find current options here packages/theme/src/borders.ts .

    image

    Example of using borders:

    // BAD: use incorrect values and without tokens ❌
const Box = styled.div`
	border-radius: 6px;
	border: solid 0.5px red;
`

// BAD: use correct values, but without tokens ❌
const Box = styled.div`
	border-radius: 8px;
	border: solid 1px red;
`

// GOOD  ✅
import { borders } from '@trezor/theme';

...

const Box = styled.div`
	border-radius: ${borders.radii.xs};
	border: solid ${borders.widths.small} red;
`

  • Z-indices

  • boxShadows

  • Icons

    We should use only icons from our iconset. Ideally we shouldn’t use icons that are marked as deprecated. Iconset can be found [here](https://dev.suite.sldev.cz/components/develop/?path=/story/icons--all-icons).

Use $ for parameters in styled-components

Desktop app shares color tokens with Mobile app. This means we can’t simply change them without being aligned together. In case we need a new color we don’t add it to the theme but ideally we should ask in the Slack channel [suite_usability_feedback](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN)) why it’s missing.

Elevations

In a design system, elevation refers to the visual hierarchy created by applying shadows or layering effects to elements, giving them a sense of depth and prominence. It helps to differentiate between components based on importance or interaction level, typically using predefined shadow styles or z-index values.

How to use elevation for background:

// BAD: using elevated color but not respecting current elevations ❌
const Container = styled.div`
    background: ${({ theme })=> theme.backgroundSurfaceElevation0};
`;

// GOOD  ✅
import { useElevation } from '@trezor/components';
import { mapElevationToBackground, Elevation } from '@trezor/theme';

// Improvement: `${({ theme, $elevation }) => mapElevationToBackground({ theme, $elevation })}` can be simplified to: `${mapElevationToBackground}`;
const Container = styled.div<{ $elevation: Elevation }>`
    background: ${({ theme, $elevation })=> 
      mapElevationToBackground({ theme, $elevation })};
`;

const Component = () => {
	const { elevation } = useElevation();

	return (
	  <Container $elevation={elevation} />
	)
}

It works the same also for border:

import { mapElevationToBorder } from '@trezor/theme';

...

border: solid 1px ${mapElevationToBorder};

You can rise or lower elevation with ElevationUp and ElevationDown components:

<Container> 
  <ElevationUp>
    This context has higher elevation
  </ElevationUp> 
  <ElevationDown>
    This context has lower elevation
  </ElevationDown> 
</Container>

Code review

  • screenshots nebo dobrý popis
  • maintain PR without growing too big. Ideally less than 500 changed lines. Otherwise it’s really hard to go through it
  • Add screenshots to your PR if it’s related to UI. Ideally two screenshots - before and after state and describe or draw if something is necessary to explain.
  • přidat odkaz na figmu
  • Ask for codereview here: [suite_usability_feedback](https://satoshilabs.slack.com/archives/C07NNMUBJFN)
