Following the Ant Design specification, we developed a React UI library `antd` that contains a set of high quality components and demos for building rich, interactive user interfaces.

## Features
- An enterprise-class UI design language for web applications.
- A set of high-quality React components out of the box.
- Written in TypeScript with complete defined types.
- A npm + webpack + [dva](https://github.com/dvajs/dva) front-end development workflow.
## Environment Support
* Modern browsers and Internet Explorer 9+ (with [polyfills](https://ant.design/docs/react/getting-started#Compatibility))
* Server-side Rendering
* [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/)

## Installation
### Using npm or yarn
**We recommend using npm or yarn to install**，it not only makes development easier，but also allow you to take advantage of the rich ecosystem of Javascript packages and tooling.
```bash
$ npm install antd --save
```
```bash
$ yarn add antd
```
If you are in a bad network environment，you can try other registries and tools like [cnpm](https://github.com/cnpm/cnpm).
### Import in Browser
Add `script` and `link` tags in your browser and use the global variable `antd`.
We provide `antd.js` `antd.css` and `antd.min.js` `antd.min.css` under `antd/dist` in antd's npm package. You can also download these files directly from [](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/antd) or [unpkg](https://unpkg.com/).
> **We strongly discourage loading the entire files** this will add bloat to your application and make it more difficult to receive bugfixes and updates. Antd is intended to be used in conjunction with a build tool, such as [webpack](https://webpack.github.io/), which will make it easy to import only the parts of antd that you are using.
## Usage
```jsx
import { DatePicker } from 'antd';
ReactDOM.render(, mountNode);
```
And import stylesheets manually:
```jsx
import 'antd/dist/antd.css'; // or 'antd/dist/antd.less'
```
### Use modularized antd
- Use [babel-plugin-import](https://github.com/ant-design/babel-plugin-import) (Recommended)
```js
// .babelrc or babel-loader option
{
"plugins": [
["import", { libraryName: "antd", style: "css" }] // `style: true` for less
]
}
```
This allows you to import components from antd without having to manually import the corresponding stylesheet. The antd babel plugin will automatically import stylesheets.
```jsx
// import js and css modularly, parsed by babel-plugin-import
import { DatePicker } from 'antd';
```
- Manually import
```jsx
import DatePicker from 'antd/lib/date-picker'; // for js
import 'antd/lib/date-picker/style/css'; // for css
// import 'antd/lib/date-picker/style'; // that will import less
```
### TypeScript
```js
// tsconfig.json
{
"compilerOptions": {
"moduleResolution": "node",
"jsx": "preserve",
"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
}
}
```
> Note:
> - set `allowSyntheticDefaultImports` to prevent `error TS1192: Module 'react' has no default export`.
> - Don't use @types/antd, as antd provides a built-in ts definition already.
