@uxfront/ui

@uxfront/ui

Vue components for the uxfront.com family of homepages. With them, a product site gets the same look and feel as uxfront.com. That includes the scroll-driven WebGL scene of @uxfront/scene, chapters that step through their details as they scroll by, the HUD, the header, the finale and the error page.

In a Nuxt app, extend @uxfront/layer-ui instead of installing this package: the layer registers the components and composables, self-hosts the fonts and keeps the first paint free of scripts.

Install

pnpm add @uxfront/ui @uxfront/scene

The package ships Vue single-file components as source, so each component's styles compile with the app and can be inlined into the server-rendered HTML. It needs a Vite build with @vitejs/plugin-vue. Outside Nuxt (VitePress, plain Vite), let Vite compile it:

// vite.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
  optimizeDeps: { exclude: ["@uxfront/ui"] },
  ssr: { noExternal: ["@uxfront/ui"] },
});

A page

<script setup lang="ts">
import { corridor, ink, monolith } from "@uxfront/scene/formations";

// One formation per section: the hero, each chapter, the finale.
const scene = [
  monolith({ label: "Foundation" }),
  ink({ label: "Inkline" }),
  corridor({ label: "Build" }),
];
</script>

apps/web/app/pages/index.vue is the full uxfront.com homepage.

Components

Also exported: useExperience() (the scene's reactive state inside a UxSite), the v-scramble directive, FRAMEWORKS and their logos, and uxRenderHookKey.

Styles

Everything is scoped to pages that render a UxSite (or UxErrorPage), so the components can share an app with other pages. Tokens and the page base sit on :root:has(.ux-site). Utilities are prefixed (.ux-mono, .ux-serif, .ux-sr-only), and component styles are scoped.

The tokens are the shared look, so sites shouldn't need to change them. If one must, override it with the same selector:

:root:has(.ux-site) {
  --ux-fg: #f2f2f5;
  --ux-spectrum-0: #ff4a5a; /* …to 6: the prism's rails and the chips' tones */
}

Keep --ux-bg at #050507: the scene's canvas paints that colour itself.

The typefaces are Geist, Geist Mono and Instrument Serif (--font-ux-sans, --font-ux-mono, --font-ux-serif). Without Nuxt, load them yourself.
