It's best practice to install Cooltipz.css as a dependency rather than a dev dependency. You can install cooltipz-css
via npm or yarn.
First install via npm
npm install cooltipz-css --save
Or install via yarn
yarn add cooltipz-css
Then import into your JavaScript
import 'cooltipz-css';
Or use the SCSS or CSS into your Sass/SCSS
In the below example, replace :file
with one of the options below:
src/cooltipz
(.scss file)cooltipz.css
(Expanded .css)cooltipz.min.css
(Minified .css)
/* Webpack */
@use '~cooltipz-css/:file' as *;
/* Non-webpack */
@use 'path/to/node_modules/cooltipz-css/:file' as *;
