Why you’d use it
Currently, there are six pre-created themes with limited customization options, which are helpful for quickly creating a consistent look and feel for sites. With the addition of custom themes, you have greater control over things like:
- Fonts and text style,
- Colors,
- Brand images,
- Navigation settings,
- Style of components such as buttons, and more.
We hope that custom themes and custom templates allow you to create and share sites that best match your brand guidelines or specific style.
