Text Alignment Utility Classes

These utility classes control the padding for when there's a start or end icon, or both.

text-align--left
text-align--center
text-align--right
Spacing

In LiftKit, spacing uses utility classes to give designers the flexibility to assign spacing based on each use case. By leveraging balanced scaling derived from golden ratio coefficients, the spacing system guarantees that every element, gap, margin, or padding on a page is truly proportional to every other.

Margin

Margins are by far the most heavily-used spacing class in LiftKit. They range from __xs to__xxl. There is no xxs because, at that scale, the difference is visually indistinguishable.

margin-top

m-top__xs
m-top__s
m-top__m
m-top__l
m-top__xl
m-top__xxl

margin-right

m-right__xs
m-right__s

Card StyleWhether the card uses the "default" or "outline" style. Default does not require a modifier, so you can simply use .card
  • .card
  • .card__outline
Scale FactorThe largest font size contained within the card. LiftKit uses this value to provide optical corrections to card padding symmetry.
  • scaleFactor__heading
  • scaleFactor__titleB
Background ColorThe fill color of the card. Will also set the corresponding text color. See Color for list of options.
  • .bg-light__surface
  • .bg-light__inverseSurface

Components

These components deliberately have more elements than necessary for most use cases.This was done to make them faster to implement. It's quicker to delete elements you don't need than to drag in new ones. So, the recommended use for these is to quickly place an instance and then immediately detach it. From there, you can delete elements as needed.
