uzCSS Lang - Write CSS in Native Uzbek, Compile to Standard CSS

A custom CSS preprocessor that allows developers to write CSS using Uzbek property and value names, which are then compiled into standard English CSS. This project aims to make web styling more accessible and intuitive for Uzbek-speaking developers.

🌟 Features

• Uzbek Syntax: Write CSS properties and values in Uzbek.
• Automatic Translation: Seamlessly translates Uzbek CSS syntax to standard English CSS.
• Glob Pattern Support: Compile multiple .uzcss files across directories using glob patterns.
• Directory Structure Preservation: Maintains your original directory structure in the output.
• Configurable Translations: Easily extend or modify the Uzbek-to-English translation mappings.
• Colorful CLI Output: Provides clear and informative messages during compilation.

🚀 Getting Started

Follow these steps to set up and run the UZCSS compiler in your project.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v14 or higher recommended)
• npm (Node Package Manager) or Yarn

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/usmonovshohruxmirzo/uzcss.git
   cd uzcss

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   # or
   yarn install

   This will install chalk, fast-glob, and fs-extra which are required by the compiler.

💡 Usage

The UZCSS compiler is designed to be run via a script in your package.json.

1. Configure package.json

Add the following script to the "scripts" section of your package.json file. Ensure you also have "type": "module" if you are using ES Modules (which index.mjs does).

{
  "scripts": {
    "uzcss": "node src/index.mjs \"styles/**/*.uzcss\" \"dist\""
  },
  "type": "module" // Make sure this line is present at the top level
}

• "styles/**/*.uzcss": This is the input glob pattern. It tells the compiler to look for all files ending with .uzcss inside the styles directory and any of its subdirectories.
• "dist": This is the output directory where the compiled .css files will be saved. The compiler will mirror the input directory structure within dist.

2. Create your .uzcss files

Place your Uzbek CSS files in the styles directory (or any subdirectory within it).

Example: styles/main.uzcss

body {
  rang: qora;
  orqa-fon-rangi: qizil;
  matn-holat: markaz;
  shrft-o`lchami: 16px;
  kenglik: 500px;
  ichki-bo`shliq: 100px;
  chegaralar: 10px;
  balandlik: 500px;
}

header {
  kenglik: 10rem;
  balandlik: 500px;
}

3. Run the compiler

Execute the uzcss script from your terminal in the project's root directory:

npm run uzcss
# or
yarn uzcss

4. Check the output

After running the command, you will find the compiled .css files in your specified output directory (e.g., dist/styles/main.css).

Example: dist/styles/main.css (generated from styles/main.uzcss)

body {
  color: black;
  background-color: red;
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 16px;
  width: 500px;
  padding: 100px;
  margin: 10px;
  height: 500px;
}

header {
  width: 10rem;
  height: 500px;
}

⚙️ Configuration

The core of the translation logic resides in config/uzcss.config.mjs. You can customize or extend the translation mappings here.

config/uzcss.config.mjs

export const properties = {
  rang: "color",
  "fon-rang": "background-color",
  kenglik: "width",
  balandlik: "height",
  // ... add more Uzbek property names and their English equivalents
};

export const values = {
  chap: "left",
  "o`ng": "right",
  markaz: "center",
  qizil: "red",
  "ko`k": "blue",
  // ... add more Uzbek value names and their English equivalents
};

• properties: An object where keys are Uzbek CSS property names and values are their standard English CSS equivalents.
• values: An object where keys are Uzbek CSS value names and values are their standard English CSS equivalents.
