Dashboard

From the dashboard you can start using WhoobeOne.

Empty Editor

This option open the editor with an empty document (template). When you create an empty template WhoobeOne will ask you if you want to add a snippet. Snippets are pre-defined elements that will create automatically the block based on your choice.

Templates

Templates are a default database of components organized by category. They are installed at first run if you selected the Load Library option. Since the default templates library is created in the browser data (IndexedDB) if you delete your browser data, WhoobeOne will ask you to reload the library at the next run.

Remember that only the default templates library is loaded. If you changed any template from the library and saved you need to export the library and import it if you want the default library updated with your changes. For this reason I suggest to use the UI Kits to manage your custom components.

UI Kit

This options gives you the possibility to create your own UI Kits, save to your local file system and use them as your libraries. You can create as many UI Kits you need and you can import them in your WhoobeOne session as well.

Since UI Kits are based on your local file system (or even remote URL) they are not persistent. You have to import them in order to load in WhoobeOne. For this reason always save (export) your UI Kits

Benefits of using UI Kits

UI Kits have been developed for 2 main reasons:

  • portability of components
  • no dependency on database (local or remote)

WhoobeOne is like a desktop application that works locally (it can works online too) that uses JSON files to create and render web components based on TailwindCSS. Web components are intended as simple HTML, CSS and JS.

Free UI Kits by WhoobeOne

WhoobeOne comes with some free UI Kit that you can import and use as you want. You can use them as a starting point to create your custom kits. The free UI Kits are:

You can add your custom components to any UI Kit. Remember to save (export) your updated kits before to close WhoobeOne session

Purge CSS

If you plan to create a full static page based on any of your component you need to build and purge the CSS. Otherwise you will have a page/component that will have very poor performance.

If you are not using any PostCSS or other system you can use the repo based on ViteJS:

whoobe-one-vite

Vite Build Static Page

Using the Build option from the editor preview of any page, save the file as whoobe.js in the ./src folder of whoobe-one-vite installation. The static page will be deployed in the ./dist folder.

tailwind.config.js

WhoobeOne extends some utility-first TailwindCSS with some extra classes and colors. If you plan to customize WhoobeOne, copy the theme -> extend section of ./tailwind.config.js to ViteJS root folder.

Dev preview
