# Shade Design System

<p className="excerpt">Shade is Ghost's design system for product design. Built on ShadCN/UI and TailwindCSS, it provides a complete set of components and patterns for building consistent user experiences.</p>

## Overview

Shade is built on three powerful foundations:
- [ShadCN/UI](https://ui.shadcn.com/) - Reusable components built with Radix UI
- [TailwindCSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) - Utility-first CSS framework
- [Radix UI](https://www.radix-ui.com/) - Accessible component primitives

### Scope & Reuse

Shade contains reusable, system-wide components and patterns. Keep one-off, app-specific components in the consuming application rather than adding them to Shade.

### Target Audience

- **Designers**: Understand our design language and component capabilities
- **Engineers**: Find implementation details and integration examples
- **AI Agents**: Access machine-readable metadata for automation

### Core Surfaces

Shade components are used across:
- Admin interfaces
- Settings panels
- Portal experiences
- Email templates
- Documentation sites

## Getting Started

### Installation

```bash
# Install Shade
yarn add @tryghost/shade

# Install peer dependencies
yarn add react react-dom tailwindcss
```

> Note: The package is currently private and primarily consumed internally in the monorepo. The snippet above reflects usage once published.

### Basic Usage

```tsx
import { Button } from '@tryghost/shade';

function MyComponent() {
    return (
        <Button variant="solid">
            Continue
        </Button>
    );
}
```

### Configure TailwindCSS

Add Shade's preset to your `tailwind.config.js`:

```js
module.exports = {
    presets: [require('@tryghost/shade/tailwind')],
    // Your custom config...
}
```

### Scope Styles & Dark Mode

Shade scopes all styles to a `.shade` container and toggles dark mode with a `.dark` class inside that scope.

Use `ShadeApp` to handle scoping and provide context:

```tsx
import ShadeApp from '@tryghost/shade';
import {Button} from '@tryghost/shade';

export default function App() {
    // Toggle dark mode by switching the `darkMode` prop
    return (
        <ShadeApp darkMode={false}>
            <div>
                <Button>Continue</Button>
            </div>
        </ShadeApp>
    );
}
```

Alternatively, wrap your UI in a div with `className="shade"` and toggle a nested `.dark` class when needed.

## Documentation Structure

Our documentation is organized into:

1. **Components** - Individual UI elements with variants and usage
2. **Patterns** - Common UI patterns and compositions
3. **Tokens** - Design tokens via TailwindCSS
4. **Guidelines** - Best practices and standards
