1- Custom colors

We use CSS variables for 3 main theme colors: Primary color, Secondary color, and Neutrals color, following the Tailwindcss style.

You can find them in the app/styles/app.css file

:root {

  /* For rgb(240 249 255) */
  --c-primary-50: 240, 249, 255;
  --c-primary-100: 224, 242, 254;
  ...
  --c-primary-900: 12, 74, 110;

  --c-secondary-50: 240, 253, 244;
  ...
  --c-secondary-900: 20, 83, 45;

  --c-neutral-50: 249, 250, 251;
  ...
  --c-neutral-900: 17, 24, 39;
}

Primary, Secondary color:

These are the splashes of color that should appear the most in your UI, and are the ones that determine the overall "look" of the site. Use these for things like primary actions, links, navigation items, icons, accent borders, or text you want to emphasize.

Neutrals color:

These are the colors you will use the most and will make up the majority of your UI. Use them for most of your text, backgrounds, and borders, as well as for things like secondary buttons and links.

How to custom color?

You just need to change the color values in those CSS variables.

When defining your colors this way, make sure that the format of your CSS variables is correct for the color function you are using. You’ll want to use spaces if using the modern space-separated syntax, and commas if using legacy functions like rgba or hsla:

  :root {
    /* For rgb(255 115 179 / <alpha-value>) */
    --color-primary-50: 255 115 179;

    /* For hsl(198deg 93% 60% / <alpha-value>) */
    --color-primary-50: 198deg 93% 60%;

    /* For rgba(255, 115, 179, <alpha-value>) */
    --color-primary-50: 255, 115, 179;
  }

2- Custom fonts

We use css variables for 2 main theme fonts: Display fonts and Body font

:root {
  --font-display: Poppins;
  --font-body: Poppins;
}

Display font:

User for heading tag: H1 to H5 and other title tags, font size bigger than 16px

Body font:

User for main font smaller than 14px

How to custom fonts?

  1. Add your new font folder to the app/styles/fonts/ folder.

  2. Go to the app/styles/custom_font.css file

  3. Customize @font-face with your font

    @font-face {
      font-family: Your_Font;
      font-weight: 600;
      src: url('./fonts/Your_Font/Your_xxxx-SemiBold.ttf');
    }
    
    :root {
      --font-display: Your_Font;
      --font-body: Your_Font;
    }
