colors

比较全面定义总结有意义的颜色。所有uI要用的颜色，都先从已定义的读，这样保证样式的同一性，而且方便以后开发主题库。(建议想自己写css模块的，可以参考一下bootstrap里颜色定义)

• 语义颜色(四钟颜色)
  有含义的颜色，当然也可以不止这四种，如：disabled、empty

@brand-success:         #5cb85c; // 成功颜色
@brand-info:            #5bc0de; // 信息颜色
@brand-warning:         #f0ad4e; // 警告颜色
@brand-danger:          #d9534f; // 危险颜色

• 灰度颜色
  主要包含文本、文字、背景色等。

@gray-base:              #000;   // 基本的灰度
@gray-darker:            lighten(@gray-base, 13.5%); // #222
@gray-dark:              lighten(@gray-base, 20%);   // #333
@gray:                   lighten(@gray-base, 33.5%); // #555
@gray-light:             lighten(@gray-base, 46.7%); // #777
@gray-lighter:           lighten(@gray-base, 93.5%); // #eee

• 文字、背景色、链接状态

@body-bg:               #fff;
@text-color:            @gray-dark;
@link-color:            @brand-primary;
@link-hover-color:      darken(@link-color, 15%);
@link-hover-decoration: underline;

字体

字体大小必须是在已有基础上，做计算。从h1~h4间隔都是6px;h5~h6分别是14px、12px;而14是基础字体。

@font-family-sans-serif:  "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
@font-family-serif:       Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
@font-family-monospace:   Menlo, Monaco, Consolas, "Courier New", monospace;
@font-family-base:        @font-family-sans-serif;@font-size-base:          14px;
@font-size-large:         ceil((@font-size-base * 1.25)); // ~18px
@font-size-small:         ceil((@font-size-base * 0.85)); // ~12px@font-size-h1:            floor((@font-size-base * 2.6)); // ~36px
@font-size-h2:            floor((@font-size-base * 2.15)); // ~30px
@font-size-h3:            ceil((@font-size-base * 1.7)); // ~24px
@font-size-h4:            ceil((@font-size-base * 1.25)); // ~18px
@font-size-h5:            @font-size-base;
@font-size-h6:            ceil((@font-size-base * 0.85)); // ~12px

行高

但是它不仅局限在行高上，可以推算出高度，已知字体大小与行高时
如：@line-height-computed: floor((@font-size-base * @line-height-base));//20px
一些通用的组件属性都需要这个值，margin、padding、top、height、line-height...
所以定义好字体大小与行高的重要性不言而喻了吧。

//'line-height' for use in components like buttons.
@line-height-base:        1.428571429; // 20/14

padding与border-radius

bootstrap 有关尺寸命名的格式"-xs-" 有四种尺寸： xs、small、base、large。
而上下、左右的是：-vertical-、-horizontal-

@padding-base-vertical:     6px;
@padding-base-horizontal:   12px;@padding-large-vertical:    10px;
@padding-large-horizontal:  16px;@padding-small-vertical:    5px;
@padding-small-horizontal:  10px;@padding-xs-vertical:       1px;
@padding-xs-horizontal:     5px;@line-height-large:         1.33;
@line-height-small:         1.5;@border-radius-base:        4px;
@border-radius-large:       6px;
@border-radius-small:       3px;

Z-index

有时关于设置z-index时，我们会乱掉，只要不遮盖就行，但是有问题时，难修改、难排查；一般我们uI上有bug，会先从js上排查，最后才到css；即使找到了，发现需要一层一层的往父级找。因此可以在最初时写的时候避免它，先定义好，再使用。

@zindex-navbar:            1000;
@zindex-dropdown:          1000;
@zindex-popover:           1060;
@zindex-tooltip:           1070;
@zindex-navbar-fixed:      1030;
@zindex-modal:             1040;

操作伪类

有用户操作动作的，需要定义伪类样式如:active,hover,focus,disabled。
有些组件有可能是多个或者是一个的伪类，最好在定义基础样式时，预先定好。
不一定只有伪类定义，也可以定义类似伪类的类如：.active,.hover,.focus,.disabled。

//buttons
.btn {display: inline-block;margin-bottom: 0; // For input.btnfont-weight: @btn-font-weight;text-align: center;vertical-align: middle;touch-action: manipulation;cursor: pointer;background-image: none; // Reset unusual Firefox-on-Android default style; see https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css/issues/214border: 1px solid transparent;white-space: nowrap;.button-size(@padding-base-vertical; @padding-base-horizontal; @font-size-base; @line-height-base; @border-radius-base);.user-select(none);&,&:active,&.active {&:focus,&.focus {.tab-focus();}}&:hover,&:focus,&.focus {color: @btn-default-color;text-decoration: none;}&:active,&.active {outline: 0;background-image: none;.box-shadow(inset 0 3px 5px rgba(0,0,0,.125));}&.disabled,&[disabled],fieldset[disabled] & {cursor: @cursor-disabled;pointer-events: none; // Future-proof disabling of clicks.opacity(.65);.box-shadow(none);}
}

栅格系统

bootstrap最核心的就是栅格系统。

• 创造了.col-xs-1~.col-xs-12、.col-sm-1~.col-sm-12、.col-md-1~.col-md-12、.col-lg-1~.col-lg-12类的样式

。

.make-grid-columns() {// 先循环出.col-xs-1, .col-sm-1, .col-md-1, .col-lg-1.col(@index) when (@index = 1) { // initial@item: ~".col-xs-@{index}, .col-sm-@{index}, .col-md-@{index}, .col-lg-@{index}";.col((@index + 1), @item);}//再把.col-xs-1, .col-sm-1, .col-md-1, .col-lg-1，与之后的递增的类拼接起来形成// .col-xs-1, .col-sm-1, .col-md-1, .col-lg-1，.col-xs-2, .col-sm-2, .col-md-2, .col-lg-2，//.col-xs-1, .col-sm-1, .col-md-1, .col-lg-1，.col-xs-3, .col-sm-3, .col-md-3, .col-lg-3，.col(@index, @list) when (@index =< @grid-columns) { // general; "=<" isn't a typo@item: ~".col-xs-@{index}, .col-sm-@{index}, .col-md-@{index}, .col-lg-@{index}";.col((@index + 1), ~"@{list}, @{item}");}//最后把4*12 = 48 个类的样式统一设置.col(@index, @list) when (@index > @grid-columns) { // terminal@{list} {position: relative;// Prevent columns from collapsing when emptymin-height: 1px;// Inner gutter via paddingpadding-left:  (@grid-gutter-width / 2);padding-right: (@grid-gutter-width / 2);}}.col(1); // kickstart it
}

• 为每个带col-xs-x, .col-sm-x, .col-md-x, .col-lg-x;添加浮动。

.float-grid-columns(@class) {.col(@index) when (@index = 1) { // initial@item: ~".col-@{class}-@{index}";.col((@index + 1), @item);}.col(@index, @list) when (@index =< @grid-columns) { // general@item: ~".col-@{class}-@{index}";.col((@index + 1), ~"@{list}, @{item}");}.col(@index, @list) when (@index > @grid-columns) { // terminal@{list} {float: left;}}.col(1); // kickstart it
}

• 添加列偏移列排序，计算各个的宽度

.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type) when (@type = width) and (@index > 0) {.col-@{class}-@{index} {width: percentage((@index / @grid-columns));}
}
.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type) when (@type = push) and (@index > 0) {.col-@{class}-push-@{index} {left: percentage((@index / @grid-columns));}
}
.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type) when (@type = push) and (@index = 0) {.col-@{class}-push-0 {left: auto;}
}
.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type) when (@type = pull) and (@index > 0) {.col-@{class}-pull-@{index} {right: percentage((@index / @grid-columns));}
}
.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type) when (@type = pull) and (@index = 0) {.col-@{class}-pull-0 {right: auto;}
}
.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type) when (@type = offset) {.col-@{class}-offset-@{index} {margin-left: percentage((@index / @grid-columns));}
}

• 最后是调用

@grid-columns:12;
// Basic looping in LESS
.loop-grid-columns(@index, @class, @type) when (@index >= 0) {.calc-grid-column(@index, @class, @type);// next iteration.loop-grid-columns((@index - 1), @class, @type);
}// Create grid for specific class
.make-grid(@class) {.float-grid-columns(@class);.loop-grid-columns(@grid-columns, @class, width);.loop-grid-columns(@grid-columns, @class, pull);.loop-grid-columns(@grid-columns, @class, push);.loop-grid-columns(@grid-columns, @class, offset);
}.make-grid-columns();.make-grid(xs);@media (min-width: @screen-sm-min) {.make-grid(sm);
}@media (min-width: @screen-md-min) {.make-grid(md);
}@media (min-width: @screen-lg-min) {.make-grid(lg);
}

以上是看bootstrap源码的初步理解与感悟，都是自己感觉重要与技巧的总结；如有不足之处请多多指教。
最后在前端的道路上蹒跚前行着。
