--- order: 9 title: FAQ --- Here are the frequently asked questions about Ant Design and antd that you should look up before you ask in community or create new issue. We also maintain a [FAQ issues label](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues?q=label%3AFAQ+is%3Aclosed) for common github issues. --- ### 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` disappear when I click another popup component inside it, How to resolve it? Use ` trigger.parentNode}>` to render component inside the scroll area. (Or other getXxxxContainer props). https://ant.design/components/select/#Select-props related issue: [#3487](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/3487) [#3438](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/3438) ### How to modify the 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 doing 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 the instructions 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 China 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. ### `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 using `npm` to import `antd`, it is simple and easy 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 anymore! ### 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. - ✅ **ant.design**：For ant.design website url.

If you are using others (browserify, etc...), please read its documentation and find options which can set React & ReactDOM as external.
