1.0.0

Bulma v1 is a full rewrite of the framework using Dart Sass, which is the the primary implementation of Sass. While this affects a few development details, everything has been done to make the transition as easy as possible.

What remains the same

All HTML snippets are the same. This means you don't need to update your markup. This is important because it means, if you're using Bulma straight "out of the box", you don't need to change anything.

You can just swap bulma@0.9.4/css/bulma.min.css with bulma@1.0.0/css/bulma.min.css and everything will work. Things will look slightly different, but they will still work.

What changes

• Dart Sass is used to build Bulma
  • if you use the sass npm package, you're already using Dart Sass
• CSS Variables are used instead of literals: color: var(--bulma-primary); instead of color: hsl(171deg, 100%, 41%);, which means you can customize Bulma with CSS only (without using Sass)
• Customization by setting your own value for Sass variables works differently. See how to customize Bulma with Sass.

What's new (i.e. did not exist before)

• The notion of Themes is introduced: a theme is a collection of CSS variables within a context, and is the best approach to customize Bulma
• As a result, a Theme for Dark Mode is included
• Color Palettes are created for each of the 7 primary colors
• Skeleton loaders exist as standalone components but also as variants of other components
• You can add a prefix to all your Bulma classes so that .button becomes .my-prefix-button
  • a pre-built prefixed version exists as one of the alternative versions

0.9.4

New features

• Responsive buttons: the size of a button will change for each breakpoint (Fix #1572)
• @mixin between: takes 2 breakpoint values, outputs a media query for the range between these 2 values
• $breakpoints Sass map: a map of named breakpoints and their type (from, until or both)
• @mixin breakpoint: uses the new $breakpoints Sass map to output a media query

Improvements

• Add missing variables for content customization
• Fix #683 Modal - example javascript toggle
• Fix #3461 Bulma logo with wordmark in SVG
• Fix #3383 'Variables' sections on docs page (#3513)
• Fixes #3510 The navbar overlaps with sidebars in "Fullheight hero with navbar" (#3516)
• Setup Cypress testing (#3436)

Bugfix

• #3500 Fix hidden disabled buttons on iOS 15.4 (#3521)
• #3076 Fix Table headers centered aligned in Safari

0.9.3

New features

• New auto value for margin and padding helper classes

Improvements

• New $section-padding-desktop Sass variable
• New $hero-body-padding-tablet Sass variable
• New $shadow Sass variable (used for .box, .card, .dropdown and .panel)
• Add is-normal size modifiers to .file and .content
• New %reset placeholder

Bugfix

• #3362 Fix slash divide

0.9.2

Breaking change

To fix duplicate imports, all Sass placeholders have moved from the utilities/mixins file to its own utilities/extends file.

The Sass placeholders are:

• %control
• %unselectable
• %arrow
• %block
• %delete
• %loader
• %overlay

If you were importing them directly from utilities/mixins, you'll need to import utilities/extends instead.
If you were importing utilities/_all or even bulma.sass directly, no change is required.

New features

• Fix #1583 New is-ghost button that behaves / looks like a regular link
• New icon-text component, to combine an icon with text on its side

Bug fixes

• #3005 Fix column offsets in RTL
• Fix #3145 Dropdown content is bounded by a parent card
• Fix #3089 Sub columns of a variable columns have weird gap
• Fix #2937 Add width: unset for narrow columns
• #3208 Fix #3163 Do not override is-rounded with button-small
• #3216 Removed duplicate mixins imports, created a single extends file
• #3216 Removed all references to the .sass file extension have been removed, since they're unnecessary when there's no ambiguity between a .sass file or a .scss file

Improvements

• Fix #3012 Add $media-* variables, set to !default
• Fix #2797 Import dependencies individually for each component
• Remove list style from pagination list

0.9.1

New features

• #3047 Flexbox helpers

0.9.0

Deprecation warning

The base/helpers.sass file is deprecated. It has moved into its own /helpers folder. If you were importing base/helpers.sass or base/_all.sass, please import sass/helpers/_all.sass now.
If you were simply importing the whole of Bulma with @import "~/bulma/bulma.sass" or similar, you won't have to change anything, and everything will work as before.

The list component is also deprecated: the components/list.sass file has been deleted. It was never officialy supported as it was too similar to panel component. Use that one instead.

RTL support

Bulma now has RTL support.

By setting the Sass flag $rtl to true, you can create an RTL version of Bulma, thanks to 4 new Sass mixins:

• =ltr
• =rtl
• =ltr-property($property, $spacing, $right: true)
• =ltr-position($spacing, $right: true)

The Bulma package now also comes with a bulma-rtl.css and bulma-rtl.min.css file to be used straight away.

Spacing helpers

Bulma now has spacing helpers: https://bulma.io/documentation/helpers/spacing-helpers/

Bulma provides margin m* and padding p* helpers in all directions:

• *t for top
• *r for right
• *b for bottom
• *l for left
• *x horizontally for both left and right
• *y vertically for both top and bottom

You need to combine a margin/padding prefix with a direciton suffix. For example:

• for a margin-top, use mt-*
• for a padding-bottom, use pb-*
• for both margin-left and margin-right, use mx-*

Each of these property-direction combinations needs to be appended with one of 6 value suffixes

This release also includes the following helpers:

• light and dark color helpers
• light and dark background color helpers

Improvements

• #2925 Center table cell content vertically with is-vcentered

Bug fixes

• #2955 Fix issue when there's only one is-toggle tag

0.8.2

0.8.0

Big update

Larger form controls

Controls and buttons are now 2.5em high. You can revert this resizing by setting these previous values:

$control-height: 2.25em
$control-padding-vertical: calc(0.375em - #{$control-border-width})
$control-padding-horizontal: calc(0.625em - #{$control-border-width})
$button-padding-vertical: calc(0.375em - #{$button-border-width})
$button-padding-horizontal: 0.75em 

Light and dark colors

Each main color ("primary", "info", "success", "warning", "danger") now has a *-light and *-dark version. They are calculated using 2 new color functions:

• findLightColor() which finds the light version of a color
• findDarkolor() which finds the dark version of a color

The light colors are used by the button element, while the light and dark colors are used by the message component.

Panel colors

The panel component is now available in all the different colors.

4-value color map

The $colors Sass map now accepts, for each of its values, a map of up to 4 values. For example: the key "info" now has the ($info, $info-invert, $info-light, $info-dark) map.

If you provide a $custom-colors map, you can decide to provide a map of 1, 2, 3 or 4 values for each value. If fewer than 4 are provided, Bulma will calculate the remaining ones:

$custom-colors: (
  "lime": (lime),
  "tomato": (tomato, white),
  "orange": ($orange, $orange-invert, $orange-light),
  "lavender": ($lavender, $lavender-invert, $lavender-light, $lavender-dark)
);

This is processed by the updated mergeColorMaps() Sass function.

Scheme variables

There are 6 new $scheme derived variables: $scheme-main $scheme-main-bis $scheme-main-ter $scheme-invert $scheme-invert-bis $scheme-invert-ter
They replace the $white and $black occurences in the codebase. This makes it easy to create a "Dark mode" simply by swapping the values:

$scheme-main: $black
$scheme-invert: $white
// etc.

That is also why most of the codebase now references derived variables ($text, $background, $border etc.) instead of initial ones ($grey, $grey-lighter, $grey-darker etc.): updating the derived variables will affect all elements and components directly.

Initial variables

• $green: hsl(141, 53%, 53%)
• $cyan: hsl(204, 71%, 53%)
• $red: hsl(348, 86%, 61%)
