Introduction

What Volt UI Recipes is, what it publishes and how it relates to the Volt UI component library.

Volt UI Recipes is the companion site of Volt UI. Volt UI documents the components; Recipes shows what you can build with them, as source you copy into your own Angular project.

Every entry has a live preview, its complete source, the packages it needs and links back to the components it is made of.

What is here

  • Blocks are finished sections of a page: a hero, pricing, a footer.
  • Layouts are the shell of an application: dashboard, settings, chat. Unbranded on purpose.
  • Recipes are compositions that teach behaviour over time: validation, asynchronous search, tables.

Read Blocks, layouts and recipes for the difference, and Copying a recipe to use one.

Not a second library

Nothing here is published as an npm export. A block that shipped as a dependency would make every product that uses it look the same. You copy the source, change what you need, and keep depending only on @voltui/components.
