# Isomorphic CSS style loader for [Webpack](http://webpack.github.io) [![NPM version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/isomorphic-style-loader.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/isomorphic-style-loader) [![NPM downloads](https://img.shields.io/npm/dw/isomorphic-style-loader.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/isomorphic-style-loader) [![Library Size](https://img.shields.io/github/size/kriasoft/isomorphic-style-loader/src/withStyles.js.svg)](https://bundlephobia.com/result?p=isomorphic-style-loader) [![Online Chat](https://img.shields.io/discord/643523529131950086?label=Chat)](https://discord.gg/UFkeXwsARY) CSS style loader for Webpack that works similarly to [style-loader](https://github.com/webpack/style-loader), but is optimized for [critical path CSS](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/critical-rendering-path/) rendering and also works great in the context of [isomorphic apps](http://nerds.airbnb.com/isomorphic-javascript-future-web-apps/). It provides two helper methods on to the `styles` object - `._insertCss()` (injects CSS into the DOM) and `._getCss()` (returns a CSS string).

For more information visit https://webpack.js.org/configuration/module/. **React component example:** ```css /* App.css */ .root { padding: 10px } .title { color: red } ``` ```js /* App.js */ import React from 'react' import withStyles from 'isomorphic-style-loader/withStyles' import s from './App.scss' function App(props, context) { return (

Hello, world!

) } export default withStyles(s)(App) // <-- ``` **P.S.**: It works great with [CSS Modules](https://github.com/css-modules/css-modules)! Just decorate your React component with the [withStyles](https://github.com/kriasoft/isomorphic-style-loader/blob/master/src/withStyles.js) higher-order component, and pass a function to your React app via `insertCss` context variable (see [React's context API](https://reactjs.org/docs/context.html)) that either calls `styles._insertCss()` on a client or `styles._getCss()` on the server. See server-side rendering example below: ```js import express from 'express' import React from 'react' import ReactDOM from 'react-dom' import StyleContext from 'isomorphic-style-loader/StyleContext' import App from './App.js' const server = express() const port = process.env.PORT || 3000 // Server-side rendering of the React app server.get('*', (req, res, next) => { const css = new Set() // CSS for all rendered React components const insertCss = (...styles) => styles.forEach(style => css.add(style._getCss())) const body = ReactDOM.renderToString( ) const html = `

${body}

` res.status(200).send(html) }) server.listen(port, () => { console.log(`Node.js app is running at http://localhost:${port}/`) }) ``` It should generate an HTML output similar to this one: ```html My Application

Hello, World!

``` Regardless of how many styles components there are in the `app.js` bundle, only critical CSS is going to be rendered on the server inside the `` section of HTML document. Critical CSS is what actually used on the requested web page, effectively dealing with [FOUC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_of_unstyled_content) issue and improving client-side performance. CSS of the unmounted components will be removed from the DOM. Then on client-side use [hydrate](https://reactjs.org/docs/react-dom.html#hydrate) to make your markup interactive: ```js import React from 'react' import ReactDOM from 'react-dom' import StyleContext from 'isomorphic-style-loader/StyleContext' import App from './App.js' const insertCss = (...styles) => { const removeCss = styles.map(style => style._insertCss()) return () => removeCss.forEach(dispose => dispose()) } ReactDOM.hydrate( , document.getElementById('root') ) ``` **React Hooks Support:** You can also use `useStyles` inside your React Functional Components, instead of using `withStyles`. Please note that you still need to pass `insertCss` function to `StyleContext.Provider` from top of the tree. ```js import React from 'react' import useStyles from 'isomorphic-style-loader/useStyles' import s from './App.scss' const App = (props) => { useStyles(s); return (

Hello, world!

) }; export default App; ``` ## Related Projects * [React Starter Kit](https://github.com/kriasoft/react-starter-kit) — Isomorphic web app boilerplate (Express.js, React, Relay) * [Node.js API Starter](https://github.com/kriasoft/nodejs-api-starter) — Project tempalte for building GraphQL API backends ## License The MIT License © 2015-present Kriasoft ([@kriasoft](https://twitter.com/kriasoft)).
