Are you going to provide Angular/Vue(etc...) edition?

No, but the LICENSE of ant-design is MIT. So, you can try to implement it with ant-design's style. See: vue-antd.


Are you going to provide Sass/Stylus(etc...) style file?

No, actually, you can convert Less to Sass/Stylus(etc...) with tools (which you can Google).


Are you going to provide CoffeeScript(etc...) script file?

No, actually, CoffeeScript(etc...) works fine with JavaScript library.


How to use antd with webpack2?

See: https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/4491


How to modify antd's colour scheme?

See: https://ant.design/docs/react/customize-theme .


Would you supply other themes?

No, we follow Ant Design specification. https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/1241


How to modify Menu/Button(etc...)'s style?

You can override its style. But we don't recommend to do so. ant-design is not only a set of React components, but also a design specification.


I just want to use Menu/Button(etc...), but it seems that I have to import the whole antd and its style.

Try babel-plugin-import, or import what you need in this way:

import Menu from 'antd/lib/menu';
import 'antd/lib/button/style/css';

or (ES6 way):

import { Menu, Breadcrumb, Icon } from 'antd';

It doesn't work when I change defaultValue dynamically.

The defaultValue of Input/Select(etc...) just works in first render, and please read React's documentation.


I set the value of Input/Select(etc...), and then, it cannot be changed by user's action.

Try defaultValue, and please read React's documentation.


antd override my global styles!

Yes, antd is designed to develop a complete background application, we override some global styles for styling convenience and it can't be removed now.


I cannot install antd and antd's dependencies(etc...). FYI, I live in C mainland.

Long live the Girl Friend Wall! And try cnpm.


I set dependencies.antd as git repository in package.json, but it doesn't work.

Yes, please install antd with npm. If you want to install the latest version, try npm install antd@beta.


message and notification is lower case, but other components are capitalized. Typo?

No, as message is just a function, not a React Component.


It seems that antd doesn't support server rendering.

Yes, and we have no plan & time to officially support it now.

Also, we fixed lots of issues about server rendering reported by community after 1.x and we will continue to do this.

https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/215#issuecomment-203791164

We support it after antd@2.0.0!


antd doesn't work well in mobile.

Please check And Design Mobile for details. antd has not been optimized to do so. You may try react-component, those repositories which start with 'm-' 'rn-' are designed for mobile.


Does antd supply standalone files like 'react' do?

Yep, you can import antd with script tag. But we recommend use npm to import antd, it is simple and ease to maintain.
