How sizes are measured
The JavaScript figure includes this component’s required helpers. CSS includes its styling dependencies. Each entry is bundled separately for ES2022, minified, then compressed with gzip level 9. Your bundler may share helpers across components. Images, fonts, examples and application code are excluded.
Before compression: JavaScript 5.2 KiB; component CSS 2.1 KiB. These figures describe browser assets, not the complete package download.

import '@blukavantui/web/theme.css'
import {createEmptyState} from '@blukavantui/web/empty-state';
import '@blukavantui/web/empty-state.css';
export function mount(host: HTMLElement) {
const action = document.createElement("button");
action.className = "blu-common-button blu-common-button--primary";
action.textContent = "Create project";
action.onclick = () => { host.dataset.action = "create-project"; };
return createEmptyState(host, { Title: "No projects yet", Description: "Create your first project to get started.", Actions: action });
}
const instance = mount(document.getElementById('example')!)
// When this page or framework component is removed:
// instance.destroy()
Install the library and add the host element
npm install https://blukavantui.blutekmedia.com/downloads/blukavantui-web-0.6.2.tgz<div id="example"></div>This example uses the downloadable @blukavantui/web package. Your application handles persistence and authentication through its typed callbacks. The starter ZIP includes this same example.
createEmptyState
Pass options as the second argument and callbacks in the third argument. Keep the returned instance to update options or dispose it when its view is removed.
import { createEmptyState } from '@blukavantui/web/empty-state';
import '@blukavantui/web/empty-state.css';Load @blukavantui/web/theme.css once in your app shell.createEmptyState(host: HTMLElement, options: T.EmptyStateOptions, events?: T.EmptyStateEvents)Reference for @blukavantui/web 0.6.2. Required and optional follow the shipped TypeScript declarations; optional does not imply a particular default. Pass typed arrays and objects directly where shown.
