@tomleo The basic "hello world" foundation should be ready for a review now. Keep in mind, as per the ticket description, that the scope of this stage is:

1. create a feature branch
2. create the es-ds-components folder and package as a Nuxt layer
3. create the es-ds-docs folder, put a starter Nuxt 3 app in there, hook it up to es-bs-base and es-ds-components, and make sure hot reloading works for local development

I'm particularly interested in any feedback on the names of the makefile commands (make dev vs. make legacy-dev) and how we can best preserve the old packages' commands in case we need to do a hotfix (more worried about that in the Lerna case actually, which isn't set up yet for the new thing), while keeping it simple to run the new 3.0 design system locally and publish it.

And this PR will remain open for a while (so no need to fully approve it), as it represents the feature branch we'll work against. But worth reviewing what's there so far and any concerns. I've created or will create separate tickets for setting up the initial content in the docs site along with PrimeVue, Jest testing, linting, prettier, simultaneously publishing to NPM via Lerna, etc, as some of those can be done in parallel with developing PrimeVue components.

I get this error when running make dev after going through the usual build steps for es-ds. Is it looking for an npm package that doesn't exist yet?

I got this error too.

Nice work on this! I'm glad you were even able to get the Prism source code viewing working.

Regarding the SASS deprecation warning, I don't know why we didn't encounter this before in the POCs. But in any case, I'm not sure it's that complex.. I left a comment on the ticket.

I also wonder whether we should be maintaining the old repos (es-vue-base and es-design-system) within this repo. es-vue-base would be broken if we remove styles from es-bs-base that are specific to the BootstrapVue implementation. It seems like we could keep the old design system as a branch instead.

[nathanielwarner]

Sort of a nit: I'm not sure we should encourage using PrimeVue components that are not part of the design system. We should at least warn people that they're gonna be unstyled

[nathanielwarner]

Noting that BootstrapVue's implementation for this and other layout components is a bit more complex, and supports other props including offset and order as specified in their docs. Do you think we should try to support those props as well? I think the approach you've followed is clearer and has less "magic" than how BootstrapVue does it.

[ericdouglaspratt]

For the final release, probably. I think we and others may be using those props in a few places, but worth a look at how complex it gets.

My main initial goal was to unblock the new design system docs site.

[nathanielwarner]

That makes sense yeah

[nathanielwarner]

Do you know what this is/why it's necessary? (ditto for analogous files) I tried deleting this file and referencing @energysage/es-bs-base/scss/variables/_blues.scss from es-ds-docs/pages/atoms/color.vue as was previously done, and that seemed to work fine

[ericdouglaspratt]

Interesting - when I initially tried it that way, it was coming in as a raw string rather than an object, so I searched around and found this discussion thread that offered some potential solutions.

I just tried switching the import path back to the old file locally and my dev server won't even load the Colors page now - it just hangs.

[nathanielwarner]

You restarted the dev server? And your node --version is 18.19.1?

[ericdouglaspratt]

I started it from scratch after making the change, yeah. I'm running node 18.12.0.

[nathanielwarner]

Maybe we can troubleshoot that together. Since the .node-version in this repo is 18.19.1, Nodenv should automatically put you on that when you're running node or npm from this directory. I'm guessing if you run which node, you see something other than /Users/yourname/.nodenv/shims/node

I don't know if that's the reason you're encountering this issue, but behavior does change between Node versions, especially the major releases.

[nathanielwarner]

Ohhh ok never mind. I'm actually getting the same error when I go specifically to http://localhost:8500/atoms/color. It's strange that it's only a client-side error.

[nathanielwarner]

Part of what Nuxt Layers allows is to specify this sort of thing in the design system package, rather than in downstream repos. Is there a reason you put the options other than extends here rather than in es-ds-components?

[nathanielwarner]

Also noting that the previous design system imported bootstrap.import rather than just bootstrap. I'm not sure if there's implications to that.

[ericdouglaspratt]

Fair! Having the es-bs-base include come for free with the es-ds-components Nuxt layer would be easier.

Not sure of the difference between bootstrap and bootstrap.import - I see a @forward directive in bootstrap.import, but not sure that's necessary as I don't think we need to make any variables or mixins available in any SCSS we write "after" the inclusion of bootstrap as there is none, it's passed straight to Nuxt to do a SASS build. In Vue components, I'd expect we still have to do the direct imports of breakpoints and variables as we did before.
