Imarc Boilerplate Versions Save

Boilerplate 6 brings

• Vue 3
• Vite (replacing Laravel Mix)
• A new grid (replacing candlepin and .container)
• More consistent components
• Updated Sass structure using @use and @forward

The Vue 2 version (Boilerplate 5) lives on in the 5.x branch, but for all new projects we recommend Boilerplate 6.

Boilerplate 5 brings a number of updates, including

• Lots of new components
• Depending on Vue 2 for a set of Vue components
• Better mixins for working with ABEM
• Updates with WCAG in mind to components and colors
• Responsive Image components
• Starting points for Transitions, Easings, Shadows and Color Scales
• Updated dependencies to Mix 6; removing dependencies on FontAwesome and jQuery
• Significantly expanded documentation

4.0.0. may be the first stable release of imarc/boilerplate-components, but we're going to keep its version number in sync with it's pre-existing sister repository, imarc/boilerplate.

This repo is the more feature packed version of imarc/boilerplate, including all ports of most Boilerplate 3 components on top of all the new stuff that are in both repositories:

• We've adopted Fractal as our builtin pattern library and added twig files to go with it.
• We've reorganized our file structure significantly, to better fit modern web development.
• We've adopted ABEM and Atomic Design as a convention for class names and file structure.
• We've pulled in a Laravel Mix powered front end build.
• We've added some basic scaffolding via npx.

We're getting set to release Boilerplate 4, which includes splitting off most components to this separate project, imarc/boilerplate-components. It'll exist along side imarc/boilerplate going forward.

This release introduces components to the Imarc Boilerplate, along with all kinds of various fixes and general cleanup.
