Customizing the Jekyll Theme

Customizing a color palette

This theme uses 5 colors.

  1. Main text color and nav-bar background color
  2. Link and highlight color
  3. Main background color
  4. Accent background color
  5. Link-hover color and footer-link color

You can create your own palette by creating a new palette file in the _sass/colors/ folder and assigning your own values to the color values there. These palettes offer a guide for choosing colors with appropriate contrast, and the Coolors tool is a good platform for refining the colors.
