Skin Styles

Choose one of eight customizable skin styles.

After Dark uses hackcss to provide four color palettes and two display modes. Toggle between them from your site configuration for 8 possible combinations:

Palette Mode
Hack Standard
Dark None required.
[params.hackcss]
  mode = "standard"
Dark Grey
[params.hackcss]
  palette = "dark-grey"
[params.hackcss]
  mode = "standard"
  palette = "dark-grey"
Solarized Dark
[params.hackcss]
  palette = "solarized-dark"
[params.hackcss]
  mode = "standard"
  palette = "solarized-dark"
Light
[params.hackcss]
  palette = "light"
[params.hackcss]
  mode = "standard"
  palette = "light"

The default skin uses the dark color palette with the hack display mode. No configuration is necessary to use the default skin.

Choose a skin style from your site configuration. For example, to set a dark grey color without the stylistic markdown treatment update your config like:

config.toml
 1baseurl = "https://letterboxd.com/"
 2languageCode = "en-US"
 3title = "A Scanner Darkly"

Disable skin styles by setting the disabled flag:

[params.hackcss]
  disabled = true # disable skin styles entirely

When changing colors review Custom Styles, Trim Color and Error Page, making any adjustments necessary to achieve the desired look-and-feel.
