Brightlayer UI React Components

This is a library of re-usable React components for use in Brightlayer UI applications. For the most part, these components are meant to simplify building your application by providing drop-in components that implement common use cases in Brightlayer UI and eliminate the need for multiple teams to build their own components for these.

Refer to the Component Library API documentation site for a list of available components and the document for each individual component.

Installation

To install the Brightlayer UI react components from NPM as a dependency for your project, you can run the following command in your project root:

yarn add @brightlayer-ui/react-components

Usage

See the developer documentation site for detailed information on using these components.

For use with MUI 6+, you must be using version 7 of @brightlayer-ui/react-components and version 8 of @brightlayer-ui/react-themes.

Migration from v7 to v8

With the release of version 7, Brightlayer UI React Components have been updated to use Material UI v7. The usage of the BLUI components remains the same, but there may be some updates required in your project to migrate to MUI v7.

You can refer to the official MUI Migration Documentation for details on the steps to upgrade.

Browser Support

Brightlayer UI libraries will work with any modern browser. For details, please refer to our Browser Support documentation.

Running the demo project and React Component Library API Docs

This repository comes with a demo project found within the /demos folder. The Showcase project (from react-showcase-demo) that shows a combination of components in the context of a realistic interface.

The react-showcase-demo is deployed as part of the Brightlayer UI continuous integrations.

The second project found within the /docs folder is the React Component Library API documentation that allows you to see the components in isolation and interact with their properties.

The React Component Library is deployed as part of the Brightlayer UI continuous integrations.

You can build, link, and start the applications in a single step by running

yarn start:showcase

or

yarn start:docs

from the root directory.
