    width: 100%;
    background: #F1F1F1;

About

I love styled-components and needed a DOM equivalent for a project. This is the result. It functions almost the same with pseudo and media queries supported. Dynamic props can be fed in through primitive functions; the output of each is a function where props can be fed in, which then returns another function where child elements and strings can be fed in.

A special thanks to Max Stoiber and the styled-components team for coming up with a great component API for mixing CSS and JS.

Usage with Props

import styled from 'styled-elements';

const Header = styled.h2`
  color: #${props => props.status === 'success' ? '000' : '333'};
`;

document.body.appendChild(Header({ status: 'success' },
  'My Header'
));

With Keyframes

import styled, { keyframes } from 'styled-elements';

const boxmove = keyframes`
  0%   {top: 0px;}
  25%  {top: 200px;}
  75%  {top: 50px}
  100% {top: 100px;}
`;

const Box = styled.div`
  background-color: lightcoral;
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  display: block;
  position :relative;
  animation: ${boxmove} 5s infinite;
`;

document.body.appendChild(Box());

Works well with yo-yo

import yo from 'yo-yo';
import styled from 'styled-elements';

const Wrapper = styled.div`
  padding: 20%;
  background: #F1F1F1;
`;

const Header = () => styled(yo`
  <header>A Header</header>
`)`
  color: #333;
`;

document.body.appendChild(Wrapper(
  yo`<div>
    ${Header()}

    <hr />

    <button onclick=${() => console.log('hello!')}>
      Some Button
    </button>
  </div>`
));
