This library of React components implements many of the designs released in the Microsoft Teams UI Kit. With these components, your Teams app can offer accessible, high-quality experiences that align with Microsoft Teams.
This library expects a few peer dependencies; if your project doesn’t have them at these versions, you’ll need to add or upgrade them:
react@^16.8.0react-dom@^16.8.0@fluentui/react-northstar@^0.54.0
Next, simply add as a dependency to your project:
yarn add @fluentui/react-teamsor
npm i --save @fluentui/react-teamsSince the components require fairly specific, structured props, development is far easier in projects that use TypeScript. Avoid typing props passed to these components as any in order to ensure your content’s types are checked.
The API’s promises are communicated in the docs, which are derived directly from the type declarations. This library uses semver to indicate breaking changes in the API, so props that pass a type check will still work for all releases of this library with the same major version.
For these components to work properly, they need their provider.
import {Provider as RTProvider, Board } from "@fluentui/react-teams";
export default (props) => {
const boardProps = getBoardProps(props)
return <RTProvider themeName="teamsTheme" lang="en-US">
<Board {...boardProps} />
</RTProvider>
}The provider accepts a themeName, which can be teamsTheme for the default (light) Teams theme, teamsDarkTheme, or teamsHighContrastTheme.
Each component’s content props accept data that can be serialized to JSON. This means that instead of nesting components with fairly atomic props, components in this library don’t accept children and take props with fairly specific structures.
Consider modeling your use case after examples provided in this library’s Storybook or by examining the componnt’s TypeScript types.
Components with interactivity accept an onInteraction handler, which calls your function any time a user triggers an event you can respond to. The handler is called with a payload (also designed to be serialized to JSON) like this:
{
"event": "click",
"target": "toolbar",
"subject": ["item1", "item2"],
"action": "delete"
}This payload differs depending on the component and the kinds of interactions it supports; consider checking the type of onInteraction on the component you want to use in the API docs.
Developers can override all text with their own wording by providing a TTranslations object to the translations prop on the HVCThemeProvider component. US English is already built-in.
Any component props which become rendered text in the UI are defined as a TTextObject, which lets you configure what to display in supported locales.
You can read more about each component’s specific props and their types in the API docs in the docs folder. The index for the entire project is docs/react-teams.md.
The best place to start for each component is its I{Component}Props, where Component is the component name, e.g. the main API docs for Board is IBoardProps.
