Utility classes may be included in your HTML or applied using Utility classes in your Sass.
Utility
Example
Code
.circle-size
.circle-5
class="circle-5"
.square-size
.square-5
class="square-5"
Use single-quoted strings in Utility classes.
Do not quote numbers or px values. With the exception of half (05), values like
'105', and '205' should be treated as strings.
String tokens for half values (like 05) and negative values (like neg-1) may
also be written with their unquoted number token equivalent: 0.5, 1.5,
2.5, -1, -1.5, etc.
If multiple utilities share the same prefix (ex: .text- or .flex-) or a single
utility accepts multiple kinds of values (ex: .border accepts both border weight and border
color), their shared mixin can accept multiple comma-separated values:
u-text('primary-darkest', 'no-underline', 'bold')
u-border-top(2px, 'accent-warm')
Output any utility mixin as !important by appending !important to the mixin’s
argument list:
u-bg('red-warm-50v', !important)
