# Engie's typescript components of the Fluid design system
[Fluid](https://www.engie.design/fluid-design-system/) is the Engie's design system, a collection of reusable components and styles used to build Engie's digital products.
Here is the package to benefit from Fluid's components and styles in your typescript project.
## 🚨 Deprecation Notice: Migration to Webcomponents
This package is **planned to be deprecated current 2026** in favor of the new [Fluid Webcomponents library](https://fluid.design.digital.engie.com/fluid-design-system/storybook/webcomponents/index.html).
All current components will be progressively migrated to their webcomponent versions.
**You can already start migrating your projects to the available webcomponent as they are released.**
#### Why this change?
- **Increased interoperability**: Webcomponents are natively compatible with all modern frameworks (React, Angular, Vue, etc.) and can be used without any framework.
- **Simplified maintenance**: A single codebase for all environments, reducing technical debt and making future evolutions easier.
- **Standardization**: Adoption of web standards ensures better sustainability and scalability.
We recommend **anticipating this transition** in your projects.
> For more information or support, please refer to the [Webcomponents library documentation](https://fluid.design.digital.engie.com/fluid-design-system/storybook/webcomponents/index.html) or contact the Fluid team.

## Versioning
⚠️ This package doesn't follow semantic versioning, breaking changes are introduced in minor versions.
Versions are structured as `GLOBAL.BREAKING.MINOR` where:
- `GLOBAL` is the **global version of Fluid Design System** (ex: Fluid 4, Fluid 5, Fluid 6 etc.). We are currently at `Fluid 6`.
- `BREAKING` is incremented for each **breaking-change** (component API change, layout change, etc.).
- `MINOR` is incremented for bug **fixes, features and non-breaking changes**.
We recommend **using `~` semver range** to avoid breaking changes affecting your application.
Moreover, we recommend checking the [CHANGELOG](https://fluid.design.digital.engie.com/fluid-design-system/storybook/vanilla/index.html?path=/docs/docs-changelog--documentation) before updating the package after a release.
## Getting started
This package can be installed directly with NPM or via CDN.
### NPM installation
You can install the package inside your application via [npmjs](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@engie-group/fluid-design-system):
```shell
# Using npm
npm install @engie-group/fluid-design-system @engie-group/fluid-design-tokens
# Using pnpm
pnpm add @engie-group/fluid-design-system @engie-group/fluid-design-tokens
# Using yarn
yarn add @engie-group/fluid-design-system @engie-group/fluid-design-tokens
```
#### CSS
Component styling is based on CSS classes and some CSS variables (called design tokens).
In order for each component to be rendered as expected, you need to include CSS files as global stylesheet in your project.
You should include them in your HTML ``:
```html
```
or in your JavaScript entry file :
```javascript
import '@engie-group/fluid-design-tokens/css';
import '@engie-group/fluid-design-system/css';
```
or in your CSS entry file :
```css
@import '@engie-group/fluid-design-tokens/css';
@import '@engie-group/fluid-design-system/css';
```
> ℹ️ We recommend including the Fluid Design System CSS before your own stylesheets to avoid any conflicts.
#### Javascript
Some components need JavaScript code to work properly.
When your DOM is rendered, dynamic components will need to be initialized to work properly.
To do so, you will have to initialize them either with a global script which will initialize all components or by initializing each component individually.
##### Global initialization
You can use the auto initializer script to initialize all components at once.
Add the following script near the end of your pages, right before the closing `` tag:
```html
```
##### Individual initialization
You can also initialize each component individually in your JavaScript by calling the static `init` method of the component.
For example, to initialize all Select components on your page, you can use the following code:
```javascript
// In a JS file or script tag called right before the end of the body
import { Select } from '@engie-group/fluid-design-system';
Select.init();
```
### CDN installation
It's possible to use Fluid Design System via CDN. This is the recommended way to use Fluid if you don't have a build process or if you want to quickly test Fluid in a project.
As with the NPM installation, you will need to include some CSS and JavaScript files in your project. Installations are very similar.

#### Javascript
Some components need JavaScript code to work properly.
To access components in your code we export a global `NJ` constant that contains all components.
To make it available, you will have to set this script before using any component:
```html
```

## Documentation and usage
For a better comprehension of the components and their usage, we recommend checking our [Storybook](https://fluid.design.digital.engie.com/fluid-design-system/index.html) documentation.
For Fluid overall documentation, you can check our [Fluid documentation](https://www.engie.design/fluid-design-system/).
If you have correctly followed the installation steps, you should be able to use Fluid components in your project.
