The Meshery.io site is built using Jekyll and Javascript.
To differentiate between dark and light theme components, a base file rootvariables.scss has been created. It contains global CSS variables that can be accessed by using the var() keyword during styling elements. This file powers all the different styles (including font colors, background colors, image filters and image backgrounds) based on theme changes.
It is advised to use these predefined styles for contributing to different features on the website that are theme dependent. Avoid creating your own CSS variables.
To change text color in CSS, this can be used:
color: var(--color-primary-light);
To change background color in CSS, this can be executed:
background: var(--background-primary);
These global variables will change automatically based on the theme selection. This is done by modifying the body classlist.
The Meshery.io website contains icons for various organisations, and these are set to change according to the website theme.
The format for SVG or other images is as follows:
<img src = " *path for image SVG to be used for light theme* "
id = "logo-dark-light"
data-logo-for-dark = " *path for image SVG to be used for dark theme* "
data-logo-for-light = " *path for image SVG to be used for light theme* "
The id logo-dark-light is used as a CSS selector and ensures that the image is effected by the theme changes.
The images can be found at the path meshery.io/ images
