Using Javascript Variables with styled-components

I eventually figured this out, so here’s how you can do it, at least if using React.

You need to define the variables in one file and export them.

// Variables.js

export const FONTSIZE_5 = '20px';

Then you need to import those variables into each component file.

// Button.js

import * as palette from './Variables.js';

Then you can use the variables in your styled-components like this:

const Button = styled.button`
  font-size: ${palette.FONTSIZE_5};
`;
