### Are you going to provide Vue(etc...) edition?
No, but [the LICENSE of ant-design](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/blob/master/LICENSE) is MIT. So, you can try to implement it with ant-design's [style](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/tree/master/style), like: [ant-design-vue](https://github.com/vueComponent/ant-design-vue) [vue-beauty)](https://github.com/FE-Driver/vue-beauty) or [antue](https://github.com/zzuu666/antue).
### Are you going to provide Sass/Stylus(etc...) style file?
No, actually, you can convert Less to Sass/Stylus(etc...) with tools (which you can Google).
### `Select Dropdown DatePicker TimePicker Popover Popconfirm` will disappear when I click another popup component inside it, How to resolve it?

### How to modify default theme of Ant Design?
See: https://ant.design/docs/react/customize-theme .
### Would you supply other themes?
No, we follow Ant Design specification. https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/1241
### How to modify `Menu`/`Button`(etc...)'s style?
You can override its style. But we don't recommend to do so. antd is not only a set of React components but also a design specification.
### I just want to use `Menu`/`Button`(etc...), but it seems that I have to import the whole antd and its style.
Try [babel-plugin-import](https://github.com/ant-design/babel-plugin-import), or import what you need in this way:
```jsx
import Menu from 'antd/lib/menu';
import 'antd/lib/button/style/css';
```
or (ES6 way with tree shaking):
```jsx
import { Menu, Breadcrumb, Icon } from 'antd';
```
### How to optimize momentjs bundle size with webpack?
See: https://github.com/jmblog/how-to-optimize-momentjs-with-webpack
### It doesn't work when I change `defaultValue` dynamically.
The `defaultXxxx` (like `defaultValue`) of `Input`/`Select`(etc...) only works in first render. It is a specification of React, please read [React's documentation](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/forms.html#controlled-components).
### I set the `value` of `Input`/`Select`(etc...), and then, it cannot be changed by user's action.
Try `defaultValue` or `onChange` to change `value`, and please read [React's documentation](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/forms.html#controlled-components).
### antd override my global styles!
Yes, antd is designed to develop a complete background application, we override some global styles for styling convenience and it can't be removed now. More info trace https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/4331 .
Or follow instruction in [How to avoid modifying global styles?](docs/react/customize-theme#How-to-avoid-modifying-global-styles-?)
### I cannot install `antd` and `antd`'s dependencies(etc...). FYI, I live in C mainland.
Long live the Girl Friend Wall! And try [cnpm](http://npm.taobao.org/).
### I set `dependencies.antd` as git repository in package.json, but it doesn't work.
Yes, please install `antd` with npm. If you want to install the latest version, try `npm install antd@beta`.
### `message` and `notification` is lower case, but other components are capitalized. Typo?
No, as `message` is just a function, not a React Component.
### `antd` doesn't work well in mobile.
Please check [And Design Mobile](http://mobile.ant.design) for details. `antd` has not been optimized to do so. You may try [react-component](https://github.com/react-component/), those repositories which start with 'm-' 'rn-' are designed for mobile.
### Does `antd` supply standalone files like 'react' do?
Yep, you can [import `antd` with script tag](https://ant.design/docs/react/install?locale=en-US#Import-in-Browser). But we recommend use `npm` to import `antd`, it is simple and ease to maintain.
### I can't visit `icon` in my network environment.
You should deploy the iconfont files to your network by following this [example](https://github.com/ant-design/antd-init/tree/7c1a33cadb98f2fd8688fe527dd7f98215b9bced/examples/local-iconfont). [#1070](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/1070)
After 3.9.x [we are using svg icon](/components/icon#svg-icons) so you don't need to deploy iconfont locally any more!
### How to extend antd's components?
If you need some features which should not be included in antd, try to extend antd's component with [HOC](https://gist.github.com/sebmarkbage/ef0bf1f338a7182b6775). [more](https://medium.com/@dan_abramov/mixins-are-dead-long-live-higher-order-components-94a0d2f9e750#.eeu8q01s1)
### How to spell Ant Design correctly?
-**Ant Design**: Capitalized with space, for the design language
-**antd**: all lowercase, for the React UI library
Here are some typical wrong examples:
- ❌ AntD
- ❌ antD
- ❌ Antd
- ❌ ant design
- ❌ AntDesign
- ❌ antdesign
- ❌ Antdesign
### Do you guys have any channel for donation? like PayPal or Alipay.

## Errors & Warnings
Here are some errors & warnings that you may meet while using antd, but most of them are not bugs of antd.
### Adjacent JSX elements must be wrapped in an enclosing tag
An [answer from StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25034994/how-to-correctly-wrap-few-td-tags-for-jsxtransformer), and please read [React's documentation](http://facebook.github.io/react/docs/displaying-data.html#components-are-just-like-functions).
### React.createElement: type should not be null, undefined, boolean, or number. It should be a string (for DOM elements) or a ReactClass (for composite components)
Please make sure that you import `antd`'s components correctly. Read the corresponding documentation of the `antd`'s version which you use. And pay attention to typo.
### rm is not recognized as an internal or external command
Please read this [issue](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/650#issuecomment-164966511), or try Linux/Unix.
### Failed propType: Invalid prop `AAA` of type `BBB` supplied to `CCC`, expected `DDD`. Check the render method of `EEE`.
Please read the corresponding documentation of the `antd`'s version which you use, and make sure that you pass value with correct type to `antd`'s components,
### Unknown option: xxx/package.json.presets
An [answer from Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33685365/unknown-option-babelrc-presets).
### Invariant Violation: findComponentRoot(...): Unable to find element.
You may import React twice. Set React & ReactDOM as external, if you are using webpack, See: [#525](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/525). If you are using others(browserify, etc...), please read its documentation and find options which can set React & ReactDOM as external.
