The Syncfusion Bootstrap theme is designed based on Bootstrap v3, however, it can be compatible with Bootstrap v4 applications. In addition to these four built-in themes, ThemeStudio provides support for the Fusion Theme that can only be downloaded from ThemeStudio.

Optimized CSS files

Syncfusion components provide two size modes for each theme: normal and bigger. By default, the normal size mode is applied, offering a standard appearance that is suitable for all devices. The bigger size mode provides an enlarged interface for enhanced interactions, visibility, and an overall improved user experience by increasing the size of the UI components.

The bigger size mode is ideal when an enlarged appearance is needed, while the normal size mode works best for maintaining the default appearance of components.

Below is a comparison of the Button component in normal and bigger size modes:

bigger-sized-button

Each theme includes both normal and bigger size modes, which increases the overall file size. To optimize performance, Syncfusion offers additional theme files (e.g., fluent2-lite.css), which only include the normal size mode styles. This results in a significant reduction in file size, improving load times and overall application performance, especially when the bigger size mode is unnecessary.

Refer to the comparison below for the default and optimized theme file sizes:

Theme Name Default Theme Size Optimized Theme Size
Fluent 2 3.97 MB 2.96 MB

Themes are shipped as individual and combined CSS files. Combined CSS file can be referred from the npm package @syncfusion/ej2 and individual CSS files are available within same component repository’s style folder. In ej2 npm packages, we have shipped both CSS and SCSS files for all components.

Referring All components CSS

@import "./node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2/<theme_name>.css";

Referring All components SCSS

@import "ej2/<theme_name>.scss";

Referring individual control theme

We can get the individual theme from the individual npm package or from an overall ej2 npm package.

Referring individual control from individual package

@import "<dependent-package>/<dependent-control>/<theme_name>.scss";
@import "ej2-buttons/styles/button/<theme_name>.scss";

Example:

@import "ej2-base/styles/material.scss";
@import "ej2-buttons/styles/button/material.scss";

ej2-base is common dependent package for all Syncfusion JavaScript control styles. So, it needs first to be added in the import statement.

Referring individual control from ej2 package

@import "ej2/<dependent-control>/<theme_name>.scss";
@import "ej2/button/<theme_name>.scss";

Example:

@import "ej2/base/material.scss";
@import "ej2/button/material.scss";

The individual control theme will not include its dependent control styles. I.e. The dependent controls theme should be added before adding the individual control themes.

Referring all components optimized CSS file

To refer to all component’s optimized CSS files from the @syncfusion/ej2 package, follow the below syntax:

@import "@syncfusion/ej2/<theme_name>-lite.css";
/* or */
@import "@syncfusion/ej2/<theme_name>-lite.scss";

Example:

@import "@syncfusion/ej2/fluent2-lite.css";
/* or */
@import "@syncfusion/ej2/fluent2-lite.scss";

Referring individual component optimized CSS file

To refer to individual component’s optimized CSS files from an individual packages, follow the below syntax:

@import "<dependent-package>/styles/<theme_name>-lite.css";
/* or */
@import "<dependent-package>/styles/<theme_name>-lite.scss";

Example:

@import "@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/fluent2-lite.css";
/* or */
@import "@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/fluent2-lite.scss";

Advantages of using the individual components theme

  • Reducing the page load time of the application.
  • Reducing the bundle size of the application.
  • Avoids using the unused components CSS.
