Theme Customization

Custom styles are supported.

Although the theme uses SASS as the CSS preprocessor, all colors are defined using CSS Variables. Therefore, you can create a CSS file or SCSS file to override them.

First, create a styles/index.css file in the .vuepress directory. Then, import this file in the client configuration file.

:::code-tabs

@tab .vuepress/client.ts

import { defineClientConfig } from 'vuepress/client'

import './styles/index.css' // [!code ++]

export default defineClientConfig({
  // ...
})

@tab .vuepress/styles/index.css

:root {
  --vp-c-brand-1: #5086a1;
}

:::

Style File

Create a file such as custom.css in the .vuepress directory.

Add additional styles or override default styles here:

:root {
  scroll-behavior: smooth;
}

You can also use it to override the predefined CSS variables of the default theme.

Below are some predefined variables. For the complete list, please refer to vars.css.

:root {
  /** Theme Colors */
  --vp-c-brand-1: #5086a1;
  --vp-c-brand-2: #6aa1b7;
  --vp-c-brand-3: #8cccd5;
  --vp-c-brand-soft: rgba(131, 208, 218, 0.314);

  /** Background Colors */
  --vp-c-bg: #ffffff;
  --vp-c-bg-alt: #f6f6f7;
  --vp-c-bg-elv: #ffffff;
  --vp-c-bg-soft: #f6f6f7;

  /** Text Colors */
  --vp-c-text-1: rgba(60, 60, 67);
  --vp-c-text-2: rgba(60, 60, 67, 0.78);
  --vp-c-text-3: rgba(60, 60, 67, 0.56);
}

[data-theme="dark"] {
  --vp-c-brand-1: #8cccd5;
  --vp-c-brand-2: #6aa1b7;
  --vp-c-brand-3: #5086a1;
  --vp-c-brand-soft: rgba(131, 208, 218, 0.314);

  --vp-c-bg: #1b1b1f;
  --vp-c-bg-alt: #161618;
  --vp-c-bg-elv: #202127;
  --vp-c-bg-soft: #202127;
