Evergreen v7 migration guide

Install and use components

🌲 Evergreen is made up of multiple components and tools which you can import one by one. All you need to do is install the evergreen-ui package:

$ yarn add evergreen-ui
# or
$ npm install --save evergreen-ui

A working version, assuming you are using something like Create React App, might look like this:

import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
import { Button } from 'evergreen-ui'

ReactDOM.render(<Button>I am using 🌲 Evergreen!</Button>, document.getElementById('root'))

Core values of 🌲 Evergreen

• Evergreen is built on the belief that you can never predict all future requirements, only prepare for it. Instead of creating fixed configurations that work today, Evergreen promotes building systems that anticipate new and changing design requirements.

• Evergreen is built on the belief that things should work out of the box with smart defaults, but also offer full control when needed. For example, Evergreen uses CSS-in-JS and builds on top of the Box component in ui-box.

• Evergreen is built on the belief that using Evergreen and contributing to Evergreen should be a pleasant experience. We prioritize documentation and all the tools for a solid developer experience. We advocate respect and inclusivity in our writings and interactions.
