Documenting CSS Dependencies in Closure-Library

[David Sankel]

When incorporating closure components into a project, it can sometimes be a hassle to figure out which css files, included in closure, are required to view a widget as it shows up in the demo html files. Would a patch that adds, to a component's documentation, which demo CSS files are required be objectionable?

Closure goog.ui components and demos are kind of abandoned from some time already.

Though the hassle that you have, to fetch the css, doesn't seem to be big to me.

While in the demo page, use Chrome Dev Tools in the Resources tab and save the css files that you need.

Oh interesting. Is there some kind of replacement for the goog.ui components available?

[Stanimir Mladenov]

Closure library can be considered as a Standard Javascript Library that can be used for anything you like.

It just happens that the authors did create sophisticated UI part in the library too, which is not supported or improved anymore.

I am keeping in use this UI part of the library without any problems (even supports the old IE8 browser).

Others use different frameworks like Angular, Polymer or React for their UI.

Are you saying the goog.ui.* is not supported anymore?

[Stanimir Mladenov]

These are just my observations, because I am NOT from Google.

And yet, as I stated, the goog.ui.* is pretty good, because I develop everything based on it, since the opening of the closure tools.

[Nathan Naze]

The goog.ui.* library is widely used, but is increasingly not the
focus of development on Closure. It is still supported as it has many
users within Google, but it many teams use Closure Library but do not
use goog.ui.

[Johannes Nel]

Is there a UI system which is gaining adoption within google?

[Nathan Naze]

closure-templates are widely used
angular{1,2} has uptake
various other internal and external technologies are also in use.
