Mixins
This is a set of basic mixins built into Superkube. Mixins speed up and simplify routine work by allowing complex things to be done with one SCSS command.
Background #
background-gradient
Syntax
background-gradient($color-map, $deg: 180deg)
This mixin creates two-color linear or radial gradient.
Linear Gradient
// Map (in vars/colors)
$colors: (
...
gradient: (
alpha: (
from: palette(white),
to: palette(neutral, lighter)
)
)
...
);
// Mixin
.block-1 {
@include background-gradient(color(gradient, alpha));
}
// Specified direction
.block-2 {
@include background-gradient(color(gradient, alpha), 90deg);
}
Output
.block-1 {
background-color: var(--color-from);
background-image: linear-gradient(
180deg,
var(--color-from) 0%,
var(--color-to) 100%
);
}
// Specified direction
.block-2 {
background-color: var(--color-from);
background-image: linear-gradient(
90deg,
var(--color-from) 0%,
var(--color-to) 100%
);
}
Radial Gradient
// Map (in vars/colors)
$colors: (
...
gradient: (
alpha: (
from: palette(white),
to: palette(neutral, lighter)
)
)
...
);
// Mixin
.block {
@include background-gradient(color(gradient, alpha), 'radial');
}
Output
.block {
background-color: var(--color-from);
background-image: radial-gradient(
var(--color-from),
var(--color-to)
);
}
background-image
Syntax
background-image($file1, $file2, $width: auto, $height: auto)
// Map (in vars/colors)
$colors: (
...
gradient: (
alpha: (
from: palette(white),
to: palette(neutral, lighter)
)
)
...
);
// Mixin
.block {
@include background-gradient(color(gradient, alpha), 'radial');
}
.block {
background-color: var(--color-from);
background-image: radial-gradient(
var(--color-from),
var(--color-to)
);
}
This mixin sets the image as a background for high resolution screens.
Example
.block {
@include background-image(photo.jpg, photo-2x.jpg, 800px);
}
Output
.block {
background-image: url(photo.jpg);
@media
only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
only screen and (min--moz-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
only screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
background-image: url(photo-2x.jpg);
background-size: 800px auto;
}
}
Breakpoint #
for-lg
This mixin defines styles for large screens from 1442px by default.
@include for-lg {
... content ...
}
Output
@media only screen and (min-width: 1442px) {
... content ...
}
for-md
This mixin defines styles for medium (tablet) screens up to 1024px by default.
@include for-md {
... content ...
}
Output
@media only screen and (max-width: 1023px) {
... content ...
}
for-sm
This mixin defines styles for small (mobile) screens up to 768px by default.
@include for-sm {
... content ...
}
Output
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
... content ...
}
not-sm
This mixin defines styles for all screens except small (mobile) ones from 768px by default.
@include not-sm {
... content ...
}
Output
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
... content ...
}
breakpoint
This mixin defines custom breakpoints.
// min-width 768px;
@include breakpoint($min: 768px) {}
// min-width 768px and max-width 1024px;
@include breakpoint(768px, 1024px) {}
// max-width 1024px;
@include breakpoint($max: 1024px) {}
Container #
container
Sets the width of the container from the values specified in the $containers
map.
Example
// Map (in vars/scales)
$containers: (
small: 400px,
medium: 800px,
base: 1200px,
large: 100%
);
// Mixin
.hero-container {
@include container; // base by default
}
.hero-container-large {
@include container(large);
}
Output
.hero-container {
max-width: 1200px;
}
.hero-container-large {
max-width: 100%;
}
container columns
Sets the width of the container depending on the specified number of columns. The number of columns is defined in the $grid
map. By default, the framework generates 12 columns from container-1 to container-12.
Example
.hero-container {
@include container(8);
}
Output
.hero-container {
max-width: width-of-8-columns;
}
edges
Sets the left and right padding for the container from the values specified in the $edges
map.
Example
// Map (in vars/scales)
$edges: (
base: 5rem,
large: 8rem
);
// Mixin
.hero-container {
@include container;
@include edges; // base by default
}
.hero-container-large {
@include container(large);
@include edges(large);
}
// Irregular edges
.hero-container-edges-base-large {
@include container(large);
@include edges(base, large);
}
Output
.hero-container {
max-width: 1200px;
padding-left: 5rem;
padding-right: 5rem;
}
.hero-container-large {
max-width: 100%;
padding-left: 8rem;
padding-right: 8rem;
}
// Irregular edges
.hero-container-edges-base-large {
max-width: 100%;
padding-left: 5rem;
padding-right: 8rem;
}

flex-layout
This mixin creates the flex container.
.flex-container {
@include flex-layout;
}
Output
.flex-container {
display: flex;
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
flex-direction: column;
}
}
flex-sidebar
This mixin creates a sidebar with the specified width inside the flex container. The width is specified in pixels, percent, or any other units.
.flex-container-sidebar {
@include flex-sidebar(300px);
}
Output
.flex-container-sidebar {
flex: 0 0 300px;
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
flex: 0 0 100%;
}
}
flex-content
This mixin defines the content area inside flex container.
.flex-container-content {
@include flex-content;
}
Output
.flex-container-content {
flex-grow: 1;
min-width: 0;
}
flex-auto
This mixin creates a block with an automatic width inside the flex container.
.flex-auto {
@include flex-auto;
}
Output
.flex-auto {
flex: 1 1 auto;
}
flex-column
This mixin creates a flex-column block inside a flex container.
.flex-column {
@include flex-column;
}
Output
.flex-column {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
flex-direction: column;
}
Grid #
This mixin creates a grid with the specified parameters.
Example
@include grid($my-grid-8)
Where $my-grid-8
is passed as a map
, for example:
$my-grid-8: (
gridname: my-grid-8,
columnname: column,
columns: 8,
gutter: 6rem,
gap: 6rem
);
As a result, with this map
, the mixin will create a grid with eight columns and the class my-grid-8
. You can use it in HTML like this:
<div class="my-grid-8">
<div class="column column-4">...</div>
<div class="column column-4">...</div>
</div>
Outset #
outset-both

@include outset-both(40px);
}
Output
.outset-both {
position: relative;
width: calc(100% + 80px);
max-width: calc(100% + 80px);
transform: translateX(-50%) translate3d(0,0,0);
left: 50%;
}
outset-left
This mixin increases the width of the block to the left.
.outset-left {
@include outset-left(40px);
}
Output
.outset-left {
width: calc(100% + 40px);
max-width: calc(100% + 40px);
transform: translateX(-40px) translate3d(0,0,0);
}
outset-right
This mixin increases the width of the block to the right.
.outset-right {

}
Output
.block-outset-none {
width: auto;
max-width: none;
transform: translateX(0);
left: initial;
}
