Dec 27, 2023 | Programming

Are you ready to enhance your UI design skills? With ColorUI and UniApp, you can quickly create visually appealing apps that catch the eye. Let’s dive into the details of how to use ColorUI in your UniApp project!

Getting Started with ColorUI

ColorUI is a delightful collection of UI components that allows developers to build charming applications with ease. To use ColorUI within your UniApp, follow these simple steps:

  • First, ensure you have ColorUI available in your project. You can find it on the colorui GitHub repository.
  • Import the necessary stylesheets into your project.
  • Initialize your system information within the UniApp structure.

Code Structure Breakdown

Now, let’s break down the code you’ll be using in your project. Think of your app as a cake. Each part represents a layer or ingredient that contributes to the final result.

  • App.vue: This is your base layer, like the cake itself. It ensures that your main structure is solid and tasty.
  • main.js: Just like the frosting brings everything together, this file combines the components of your app ensuring they function harmoniously.
  • pages.json: This acts like the plate where you present your cake; it defines how your app’s pages will look.
  • cu-custom: Imagine this as the decorative toppings on your cake that add personality and flair!

The Code You’ll Be Working With

css
@import colorui/main.css;
@import colorui/icon.css;
@import app.css;

// App.vue
Launch: function() {
    uni.getSystemInfo({
        success: function(e) {
            #ifndef MP
                Vue.prototype.StatusBar = e.statusBarHeight;
                if (e.platform == 'android')
                    Vue.prototype.CustomBar = e.statusBarHeight + 50;
                else
                    Vue.prototype.CustomBar = e.statusBarHeight + 45;
            #endif
            #ifdef MP-WEIXIN
                Vue.prototype.StatusBar = e.statusBarHeight;
                let custom = wx.getMenuButtonBoundingClientRect();
                Vue.prototype.Custom = custom;
                Vue.prototype.CustomBar = custom.bottom + custom.top - e.statusBarHeight;
            #endif
            #ifdef MP-ALIPAY
                Vue.prototype.StatusBar = e.statusBarHeight;
                Vue.prototype.CustomBar = e.statusBarHeight + e.titleBarHeight;
            #endif
        }
    });
}
