# Theming |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The components can be styled through CSS custom properties, meaning browsers that support custom properties are expected |
|
|
|
to support theming for Tesseract components. It is a huge advantage for Tesseract to have used this feature because of |
|
|
|
its ease of use upon application, compared to using preprocessors such as Sass, which employs its own language as well |
|
|
|
as potentially increasing the size of the bundled stylesheets. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Properties |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tesseract uses a few properties as much as possible in order to produce lightweight themes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Colors |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `color-accent` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default value: `blue` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The accent color of the components. Used to designate components that can be interacted with. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `color-fg` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default value: `black` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reference color for text, borders, and anything in the foreground. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `color-bg` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default value: `white` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reference color for anything in the background. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `color-active` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default value: `Highlight` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The version of the accent color for activated (i.e. clicked or focused) components. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Fonts |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### `font-family-base` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default value: `sans-serif` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The base font family. Used for body text. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You should have a global theme rule applied to `:root`. Below is an example of using a global theme to apply styles: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`theme.css` |
|
|
|
```css |
|
|
|
:root { |
|
|
|
/* This will be our reference background color */ |
|
|
|
--color-negative: #eee; |
|
|
|
/* This will be our reference foreground color */ |
|
|
|
--color-positive: #222; |
|
|
|
--color-accent: #ba6a9c; |
|
|
|
--color-active: #f90; |
|
|
|
--font-family-body: 'Encode Sans Semi Expanded', 'Encode Sans', system-ui; |
|
|
|
} |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) { |
|
|
|
/* Dark mode, because why not? */ |
|
|
|
:root { |
|
|
|
--color-negative: #222; |
|
|
|
--color-positive: #eee; |
|
|
|
--color-accent: #C78AB3; |
|
|
|
} |
|
|
|
} |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:root { |
|
|
|
/* We use our reference colors to set global fg and bg, but we could apply them to other elements later on. |
|
|
|
* |
|
|
|
* See below for example usage. |
|
|
|
*/ |
|
|
|
--color-bg: var(--color-negative, white); |
|
|
|
--color-fg: var(--color-positive, black); |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
background-color: var(--color-bg); |
|
|
|
color: var(--color-fg); |
|
|
|
font-family: var(--font-family-body, sans-serif), sans-serif; |
|
|
|
} |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* |
|
|
|
* Here is an example usage of overriding bg and fg. |
|
|
|
*/ |
|
|
|
.inverted-colors { |
|
|
|
--color-bg: var(--color-positive, black); |
|
|
|
--color-fg: var(--color-negative, white); |
|
|
|
} |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since the components use the same styles, the created theme will be applied to them as well. |
