## What is going on?
|
|
|
|
Hello. This is a first step toward color schema flexibility.
|
|
|
|
You still can use existing predefined `accent` colors from the list:
|
|
- blue
|
|
- green
|
|
- orange
|
|
- pink
|
|
- red
|
|
|
|
but if you need to pick another accent colors you can do it with the help of native CSS Variables.
|
|
|
|
Just create, if you haven't any yet, `static/style.css`
|
|
|
|
and redefine two CSS variables, like this
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
:root {
|
|
--accent: blue;
|
|
--accent-contrast-color: yellow;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Any other CSS Variable I should know?
|
|
|
|
You can find all of them in the browser's page inspector, but here is the list with default values anyway:
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
:root {
|
|
--accent: #23B0FF; /* 1 of 6 basic colors */
|
|
--background: color-mix(in srgb, var(--accent) 2%, #1D1E28 98%); /* background color; inherit shades of the accent */
|
|
--accent-contrast-color: black; /* mainly uses for text on the accent backgrounds but not limited */
|
|
--color: white; /* text color, also some other text use the variable in color mixing */
|
|
--border-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .1); /* border color */
|
|
--phone: "max-width: 684px"; /* phone breakpoint */
|
|
--tablet: "max-width: 900px"; /* tablet breakpoint */
|
|
|
|
/* code syntax */
|
|
/* take a look at themes/re-terminal/assets/css/syntax.scss to understand in detail which color stands for */
|
|
--syntax-func-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--accent) 70%, #999 30%);
|
|
--syntax-var-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--accent) 90%, transparent);
|
|
--syntax-value-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--accent), white);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Future plans
|
|
Already right now you can play with CSS Variables and achieve decent results, but I hope will work on some light-ish presets and maybe on exposing event more tokens to the users.
