Enhances React development with convenient Kotlin wrappers for BlueprintJS components, offering `RBuilder` extensions and type-safe icon references while simplifying dependency management.
Kotlin wrappers for Palantir's BlueprintJS React components library.
For each blueprintjs component, some RBuilder extension functions are defined with the prefix bp (e.g. RBuilder.bpButton()).
This makes it more convenient to use in kotlin-react.
The icons module wrapper is not mandatory to use icons, because you can use simple strings to refer to icons.
Only the @blueprintjs/icons module is necessary to actually bring the icons, but not the wrapper.
The wrapper module only contains the IconNames object declaring all icon name constants.
It allows to refer to icons in a type-safe way to avoid mistakes.
The version of each wrapper module is composed of the wrapped module version followed by a dash - and the version of
this wrapper library.
For example: 3.42.0-1 is the version 1 of the module wrapping @blueprintjs/core version 3.42.0
These blueprintjs wrappers are published to Maven Central. You can add them to your Gradle dependencies the usual way (you don't need to add transitive BlueprintJS NPM dependencies anymore):
implementation("org.hildan.blueprintjs:kotlin-blueprintjs-core:$blueprintCoreWrapperVersion")
implementation("org.hildan.blueprintjs:kotlin-blueprintjs-icons:$blueprintIconsWrapperVersion")
