Which UI do you use?

Custom UI

Pre built UI

Changing Style via CSS

Updating the CSS allows you to change the UI of our components to meet your needs.

This section will guide you through an example of updating the look of buttons. Note that the process can be applied to update any HTML tag from within SuperTokens components.

Global style changes

How to make changes

First, let's open our website at /auth. The Sign-in widget should show up. Let's use the browser console to find out the class name that we'd like to overwrite.

Each stylable components contains data-supertokens attributes (in our example data-supertokens="button").

Let's customize elements with the button attribute. The syntax for styling is plain CSS.

ReactJS

// this goes in the auth route config of your frontend app (once the pre built UI script has been loaded)

(window as any).supertokensUIInit("supertokensui", {
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "..."
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=button] {
            background-color: #252571;
            border: 0px;
            width: 30%;
            margin: 0 auto;
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */]
});

Angular

import SuperTokens from "supertokens-auth-react";

SuperTokens.init({
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "..."
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=button] {
            background-color: #252571;
            border: 0px;
            width: 30%;
            margin: 0 auto;
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */]
});

Vue

// this goes in the auth route config of your frontend app (once the pre built UI script has been loaded)

(window as any).supertokensUIInit("supertokensui", {
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "..."
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=button] {
            background-color: #252571;
            border: 0px;
            width: 30%;
            margin: 0 auto;
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */]
});

The above will result in:

Changing fonts

By default, SuperTokens uses the Arial font. The best way to override this is to add a font-family styling to the container component in the recipe configuration.

ReactJS

// this goes in the auth route config of your frontend app (once the pre built UI script has been loaded)

(window as any).supertokensUIInit("supertokensui", {
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "..."
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=container] {
            font-family: cursive;
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */]
});

Angular

import SuperTokens from "supertokens-auth-react";

SuperTokens.init({
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "..."
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=container] {
            font-family: cursive;
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */]
});

Vue

// this goes in the auth route config of your frontend app (once the pre built UI script has been loaded)

(window as any).supertokensUIInit("supertokensui", {
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "..."
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=container] {
            font-family: cursive;
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */]
});

Using media queries

You may want to have different CSS for different viewports. This can be achieved via media queries like this:

ReactJS

// this goes in the auth route config of your frontend app (once the pre built UI script has been loaded)

(window as any).supertokensUIInit("supertokensui", {
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "...",
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=button] {
            background-color: #252571;
            border: 0px;
            width: 30%;
            margin: 0 auto;
        }

        @media (max-width: 440px) {
            [data-supertokens~=button] {
                width: 90%;
            }
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */],
});

Angular

import SuperTokens from "supertokens-auth-react";

SuperTokens.init({
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "...",
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=button] {
            background-color: #252571;
            border: 0px;
            width: 30%;
            margin: 0 auto;
        }

        @media (max-width: 440px) {
            [data-supertokens~=button] {
                width: 90%;
            }
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */],
});

Vue

// this goes in the auth route config of your frontend app (once the pre built UI script has been loaded)

(window as any).supertokensUIInit("supertokensui", {
    appInfo: {
        apiDomain: "...",
        appName: "...",
        websiteDomain: "...",
    },
    style: `
        [data-supertokens~=button] {
            background-color: #252571;
            border: 0px;
            width: 30%;
            margin: 0 auto;
        }

        @media (max-width: 440px) {
            [data-supertokens~=button] {
                width: 90%;
            }
        }
    `,
    recipeList: [ /* ... */],
});
