Colors

Use color to signal structure, highlight or emphasize important information or elements, and display different states.

Theming in React

You can create your own design tokens for themes and use them in your components.

Styled components

For custom usage in styled-components, you should always depend on the actual theme property stored inside your context:

import React from "react";
import styled from "styled-components";
const StyledDiv = styled.div`
margin: ${({ theme }) => theme.orbit.spaceLarge};
`;

If you don’t use a theming context in your application and you still want to use context, declare defaultProps for your styled component:

import React from "react";
import styled from "styled-components";
import defaultTheme from "@kiwicom/orbit-components/lib/defaultTheme";
const StyledDiv = styled.div`
margin: ${({ theme }) => theme.orbit.spaceLarge};
`;
StyledDiv.defaultProps = {
theme: defaultTheme,
};
