When I add new HTML code to my React app , the CSS styles from the App.css file aren't applying anymore , until I retype Import './App.css'" in the head.
Any solution please.
All our components in React act like modules and have their data (variables, functions) private to them. To access code or styles from other files we need import from other modules.
Our App.js is also one such component. Until you do import './App.css', the CSS will not be applied to App.js.
Problem solved , it was about bootstrap .
Import bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css before App.css .
I was doing the opposite .

I'm new to Next.js.
Although I declared css files in _app.tsx, some of styles defined in the css files are not working.
Some of styles use images imported from 'public/images' and this are not imported neither.
Please help me find out what is wrong with this. Do I have to change the folder structure?
The version of Next.js is "13.1.1".
Thanks in advance!!
I'm working on a project with below folder structures.
public
fonts
images
src
pages
styles
global.css
layout.css
My _app.tsx file looks like
import '#/styles/layout.css';
import '#/styles/common.css';
export default function App({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
...
}
Rename your CSS file as layout.module.css. Use .module.css extension in your CSS files. Refer nextjs documentation for further references.
am also new to Nextjs , turned out you can't use regular CSS files, you should use CSS modules.
you need to rename each CSS file 'except global' to end with .module.css instead of .css
then you need to import the file in the component you want to style : import styles from 'style/file.module.css'
to style an element create a class in the CSS file:
.paragraph{ color:green }
and then use it in the component:
<p className={styles.paragraph}>I am styled with CSS modules</p>
Ref!
there is a standard CSS framework called Tailwindcss you should try it
I am facing problem with external css files on my react project. I am using material UI components. In the react components folder I created css file for each components but they are not loading when i hard reload the site.
I wanted to use external css rather than styled components or material ui style syntax.
Just import the css / scss file in your component and make sure you've added the classes for the elements.
If you are looking a more generic option you can import your style.css file in your main App.jsx (if you call it "App.jsx") file. Then you just use the className and will have access to your css.
App.jsx file
import './style.css'; // Your path to your style.css
function App() {
return (
<div>React app</div>
);
}
export default App;
I'm building a website with gatsby and I have set up the gatsby scss plugin. Everything seemed to be working fine until I realized my styles from home.module.scss were also being applied to my navigation component that only imports navbar.module.scss.
I have a style for my buttons in each of these modules that looks like this...
button {
// different styles in the different modules
}
Both of these modules import a global scss file at the top like this...
#import '../styles/global.scss';
The react components only import their respective modules. In my main index component I import global styles like this import './global.scss'
Am I misunderstanding how scss modules work in React or is this is a bug?
from my understanding
In react importing SCSS or CSS in any component will be global.
So it will affect all other components as similar to the component where you imported the SCSS file.
use different class names
I'm trying to add a dark-mode in my project. Without React, I would have just targetted the DOM element which triggers the switching of the mode and linked my custom dark.css file instead of index.css which happens to be my pre-dominant CSS file. But here in React, it would take the latest file I'm importing for my CSS. I'm a beginner in React. So please pardon me if this doesn't make much sense. Thanks in advance!
Here's my code
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import './index.css';
{/*import './dark.css*/}
import App from './App';
ReactDOM.render(
<React.StrictMode>
<App />
</React.StrictMode>,
document.getElementById('root')
);
Yes there is a way. You can use React.Lazy and React.Suspense.
For example this article explains how use them.
There's nothing wrong with importing dark.css every time, but its styles should be applied conditionally. What I mean is, all the styles for dark mode should be wrapped in a CSS class like .dark-mode. Then, when user turns dark mode on, you would apply this class to body tag or to the top-level React component, and remove it when dark mode is turned off.
This will be a much easier solution that trying to work with lazy loading.
For anyone viewing this, I would strongly recommend using useContext. It makes it very easy to pass your theme without using props to all of your children. They even have an example of implementing dark/light theme like you want: https://beta.reactjs.org/reference/react/useContext#usage
I'm trying to apply separate styleSheets for every child component by importing different styleSheets in different components but fails to achieve this as styles are being overwritten.
Sample Code: Stackblitz
childa.jsx:
import React from 'react';
import "./childa.css"
export default () => <h1>Child A!</h1>;
childa.css:
h1 {
color: blue;
}
childb.jsx:
import React from 'react';
import "./childb.css"
export default () => <h1>Child B!</h1>;
childb.css:
h1 {
color: red;
}
This is just a sample code. Need solution for a project having large styleSheets.
Based on your clarification in one of your comments:
The thing is I'm converting a project from angular to react and all
the css is already written so I can't use inline style. Is there any
way in which I don't have to rename all the css classes in all the
stylesheets?
Short ans: You can't achieve that as of now.
This article explains all the different ways to style react components. In your case, the best that you can do is use css modules and rename generic classes like h1 to .h1.
Check this great article about css modules: Modular CSS with React.
Note: css modules are not available in create-react-app. If you must use it here's an
article on how to use CSS Modules with create-react-app.
I think this is caused by ther order of the imports.
In your parent component you have something like
import React from 'react'
import ChildA from './ChildA'
import ChildB from './ChildB'
This means that in the compiled code you'll have the two stylesheets imported one after the other, and the second h1 rule will overwrite the first
You should use classes for your components, or use inline style
Importing a css does not wrap it in the scope of the component is just a straight import into the DOM. In order to mantain a separation of components styles you have to approach with another solution, as styled-components.
This may not work for your entire application, but I fixed it by applying a class to the element (.childA and .childB). This solved the problem.
export default () => <h1 className='childB'>Child B!</h1>;
