Installation

Using npm or yarn

We recommend using npm or yarn to install，it not only makes development easier，but also allow you to take advantage of the rich ecosystem of javascript packages and tooling.

$ npm install antd --save

$ yarn add antd

If you are in a bad network environment，you can try other registries and tools like cnpm.

Import in Browser

Add script and link tags in your browser and use the global variable antd.

We provide antd.js antd.css and antd.min.js antd.min.css under antd/dist in antd's npm package. You can also download these files directly from or unpkg.

We strongly discourage loading these entire files this will add bloat to your application and make it more difficult to receive bugfixes and updates. Ant is intended to be used in conjunction with a build tool, such as webpack, which will make it easy to import only the parts of antd that you are using.

Usage

import { DatePicker } from 'antd';
ReactDOM.render(<DatePicker />, mountNode);

And import stylesheets manually:

import 'antd/dist/antd.css';  // or 'antd/dist/antd.less'

Use modularized antd

• Use babel-plugin-import (Recommended)

  // .babelrc or babel-loader option
  {
    "plugins": [
      ["import", { libraryName: "antd", style: "css" }] // `style: true` for less
    ]
  }
  

  This allows you to import components from antd without having to manually import the corresponding stylesheet. The antd babel plugin will automatically import stylesheets.

  // import js and css modularly, parsed by babel-plugin-import
  import { DatePicker } from 'antd';
  

• Manually import

  import DatePicker from 'antd/lib/date-picker';  // for js
  import 'antd/lib/date-picker/style/css';        // for css
  // import 'antd/lib/date-picker/style';         // that will import less
  

TypeScript

// tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "jsx": "preserve",
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
  }
}

Note:

• set allowSyntheticDefaultImports to prevent error TS1192: Module 'react' has no default export.
• Don't use @types/antd, antd provides a built-in ts definition already.
