Styling

While running bundle exec npx gulp modify any of the files in the assets/scss/ folder and your browser will update automatically. No reload required!

The layouts all have their own stylesheets found in assets/scss/layouts/. This is where images for each of the three layouts can be found. In addition, this is where you can change text color, layout, etc.

Primary color

The primary color is used for headings, accents, and buttons. It can be changed by modifying the assets/scss/base/_config.scss file.

Add Content

Add content in config.yml or alter index.html and change {{ content }} to be whatever you want.

Imagery

As stated above, the images are set in the respective stylesheets found in assets/scss/layouts/.

We are using responsive images that require three different image sizes. This allows the browser to serve the appropriate image based on the screen size. Recommended image widths are:

  • Small: 768px wide

  • Medium: 1200px wide

  • Large: 1600px wide

To replace the images, modify the names in the responsivebackground mixin as shown below. Make sure to include the file extension!

@include responsivebackground("half-sm.jpg", "half-md.jpg", "half-lg.jpg");

Favicon

To add your own favicon, replace the image found at assets/img/favicon.png.
