The tools folder contains Sass helpers, as mixins and functions, used inside the whole codebase. Of course, all this code can be used standalone, or for writing your own components.

Global

@use "@glsass/tools/tools.global" as *;

This special file doesn't contain a function or mixin! It used to forward the most common one:

• cv()
• iv()
• mq() and mq-max()
• vr()

By forwarding them, when the file is import with the @use rule, the namespace must be set at *. It will load the module without a namespace, and avoid to call some functions like form example.

Others tools

Builder

The file contains special functions/mixins used to check and facilitate the compilation of the framework.

As an exemple, the mixin check-classname is used to verify that the string passed as variable to a module doesn't start by a point.

Form

This file contains a special mixin used to create dynamically the states classes for several components.

Generators

This other file contains the mixin used by the utilities classes.
