## Installation
Install the **SeacoTools** library in your Angular project:
## Usage Instructions
### Peer Dependencies
Ensure the following **peer dependencies** are installed in your project:
- Angular 19+ (`@angular/core`, `@angular/common`)
- `rxjs` (7.8.0 or higher)
- `@ngneat/dialog` (for dialogs)
- Tailwind CSS, ngx-spinner, and other styling-related tools.
## Basic Usage
### Step 1: Import the `SeacoToolsModule`
Add the `SeacoToolsModule` to your application or feature module:
### Step 2: Configure TailwindCSS for Your Application
Since **SeacoTools** uses TailwindCSS as a peer dependency, you need to ensure that your project is properly configured to include the required Tailwind styles. Add the Tailwind source styles to your application's primary stylesheet file.
### Step 3: Update Your `styles.css` file
Make sure you specify the paths for the library in your `styles.css`:
- `@source "../node_modules/seacotools";`
### Step 4: Use the Components in Templates
#### `<sc-icon>` Component
The `<sc-icon>` component is used to render customizable SVG icons. Customize the `name`, `appearance`, and additional `class` properties to get the desired icon style.
**Inputs**:
| **Input** | **Type** | **Required** | **Description** |
|---------------|--------------------------------|--------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `name` | `string` | Yes | The name of the icon (e.g., `'home'`, `'user'`). |
| `appearance` | `'outline' | 'solid'` | No | Icon style (outline or solid). Defaults to `'outline'`. |
| `class` | `string` | No | Tailwind or CSS classes for size, color, etc. Default sizes are `w-5 h-5`. |
#### `<sc-button>` Component
The `<sc-button>` component provides customizable buttons styled to work seamlessly with existing styles or Tailwind CSS. Example usage:
#### `<sc-dropdown>` Component
The `<sc-dropdown>` component is designed as a wrapper around the more feature-rich `sc-dropdown`. It provides a highly customizable and simplified interface for developers who require quick integration with minimal configuration.
**Inputs**:
| **Input** | **Type** | **Required** | **Default** | **Description** |
|-----------------------|------------------------------|--------------|---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| `optionClasses` | `string` | No | `''` | Custom CSS classes for the options list (e.g., hover states, padding). |
| `buttonType` | `string` | No | `'button'` | Defines the button's type attribute. |
