Usage
Components ship inside the same stylesheet as the utilities. There is nothing else to install and no script to load: link Monsoon and write the markup.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/monsooncss">
<!-- File input: start from the base class, then add modifiers -->
<div class="grid gap-3 max-w-sm">
<input type="file" class="file-input" aria-label="Attachment">
<input type="file" class="file-input file-input-primary file-input-sm" aria-label="Avatar">
</div>Theme it with --seed on any ancestor, for example style="--seed: #0d9488", and force a scheme with class="dark" or class="light" on a wrapper.
Accessibility
- Give every control a visible
labellinked withfor, or anaria-labelwhen the purpose is obvious from context. Link help and error text witharia-describedby; invalid styles use:user-invalid, so they appear only after the user interacts. - Every interactive part shows a visible focus ring with
:focus-visible, and tone colors pair with-foregroundtokens that keep text at 4.5:1 or better in light and dark mode.
