Support for styled-components 💅 in WebStorm

The plugin can be installed in WebStorm, IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, PhpStorm, PyCharm Pro, and RubyMine v2017.2 and above.

Installation

To install the plugin open the IDE Preferences | Plugins, then click Browse repositories... and search for Styled Components.

Features

With this plugin you can enjoy the full coding assistance for styled-components 💅

  • Start typing to get code completion for CSS properties and values

  • Hit Alt-Enter to see available intentions and quick-fixes

  • Start typing in the interpolation to see completion suggestions for JavaScript variables, methods and functions

  • Cmd/Ctrl-click on the JavaScript symbol to go to its definition

Configuration

To configure additional tags, search for 'styled-components' in the IDE preferences, and enter any additional tags to treat as styled components.

For example, adding a value like media will enable CodeInsight for whose tag starts with it, e.g media.tablet`padding: 20px;` , media.desktop`padding: 10px;` .

FAQ

  • Why is code inside styled-components strings highlighted green?

The IDE highlights injected language fragments by default. The highlighting can be disabled in Preferences | Editor | Color Scheme | General | Inejcted Language Fragment.

  • Why is code inside styled-components strings not reformatted?

Formatting template strings with arguments is not currently supported by the IDE. Please follow this IDE issue for updates.

  • Why am I seeing syntax errors after a template argument?

The IDE's parser tries to determine what syntax element a template string argument replaces (property, value, etc). In some cases, it may be clear from code that at runtime the template argument will be a CSS property but not possible to infer the same statically:
const getColor = () => condition ? "color: red;" : "color: white;";

styled.div`
  ${getColor()}
  padding-right: 10px
`;

In such cases, try placing a semicolon after the template argument:

styled.div`
  ${getColor()};
  padding-right: 10px
`;
