CSS variables#

React Alert supports CSS variables for easy customization. These variables are set via SASS but allow direct overrides in your stylesheets or inline styles.

--cui-alert-bg: transparent;
--cui-alert-padding-x: #{$alert-padding-x};
--cui-alert-padding-y: #{$alert-padding-y};
--cui-alert-margin-bottom: #{$alert-margin-bottom};
--cui-alert-color: inherit;
--cui-alert-border-color: transparent;
--cui-alert-border: #{$alert-border-width} solid var(--cui-alert-border-color);
--cui-alert-border-radius: #{$alert-border-radius};
--cui-alert-link-color: inherit;

How to use CSS variables#

const customVars = {
  '--cui-alert-color': '#333',
  '--cui-alert-bg': '#f8f9fa',
}

return <CAlert style={customVars}>{/* Alert content */}</CAlert>
