Styling

The package ships a precompiled stylesheet (dist/styles.css). Import it once at your app root; you do not need Tailwind in your own project.

import 'propeller-v2-react-ui/styles.css';

There are three ways to override the default look — pick the one that matches the scope of your change.

1. Theme tokens​

The stylesheet declares CSS variables (--primary, --card, --border, --radius-container, …) at low specificity. Re-declare any of them in your own CSS and every component that resolves against that token re-skins instantly:

:root {
  --primary: #ff7043;
  --card: #fafafa;
  --radius-container: 12px;
}

Scope-limited overrides work too — declare the variable on a wrapper class and only the components inside it change.

2. BEM hooks​

Every styled element carries a BEM-style class alongside its utilities — .propeller-product-card, .propeller-product-card__price, and so on. The package emits its utilities inside @layer utilities, so an unlayered rule of yours that targets a BEM class wins by cascade order — no !important needed:

.propeller-product-card__price {
  font-weight: 700;
  color: #b45309;
}

3. Per-instance className​

Every component appends props.className on its root element, so a one-off override is a regular prop:

<ProductCard product={p} className="ring-2 ring-amber-400" />
