Implement Your Theme

Generate your theme above, copy the source, then paste this into a new file in the root of your project with a distinct name, such as: my-custom-theme.[ts|js]. Make sure to strip out the Typescript type information within your theme if you opt for the Javascript format.

Open tailwind.config.[cjs|js|ts] found in the root of your project, and import your custom theme.

typescript
import { myCustomTheme } from './my-custom-theme'

Within this same file, register your custom theme via the Skeleton Tailwind plugin settings as shown below.

typescript
plugins: [
	skeleton({
		themes: {
			custom: [
				myCustomTheme
			]
		}
	})
]

Open /src/app.html and define your theme using the data-theme attribute. The value should match the name field set within your theme source code.

html
<body data-theme="my-custom-theme">

Note that custom themes can be registered alongside Skeleton's preset themes, allowing you to switch between these as desired.


Advanced Color Curation

Looking for deeper customization? We recommend using Palette Generator. This includes support for hue, saturation, and lightness adjustments. Pair this with the Hex-To-RGB extension to convert each Hex color value to RGB in bulk with VS Code.
