Use Bootstrap's color system to easily adjust your website's colors.

Theme colors

Hinode uses Bootstrap’s color system. You can adjust them in the /config/_default/params.toml file in the style section.

[style]
    primary = "#d43900"
    secondary = "#6c757d"
    success = "#198754"
    info = "#0dcaf0"
    warning = "#ffc107"
    danger = "#dc3545"
    light = "#f8f9fa"
    dark = "#212529"

In addition, the background colors black and white are available too. Below is an overview of the rendered colors.

Adaptive colors

Several components support background colors that are color-mode aware. These colors respond to changes when the active theme is adjusted, such as by changing from a light theme to a dark theme. You can apply this color by adding bg-body or bg-body-tertiary to the class of an HTML element.

body

body-tertiary

markdown
{{< card-group cols="2" padding="3" gutter="3" wrapper="my-4 p-4" class="border rounded-3" >}}
    {{< card class="bg-body text-bg-white" >}}body{{< /card >}}
    {{< card class="bg-body-tertiary text-bg-white" >}}body-tertiary{{< /card >}}
{{< /card-group >}}

Background colors

Components such as the timeline support subtle background colors. These colors are also adaptive. The following background colors are available.

bg-primary-subtle

bg-secondary-subtle

bg-success-subtle

bg-danger-subtle

bg-warning-subtle

bg-info-subtle

bg-light-subtle

bg-dark-subtle

Hinode defines additional classes to render links that contrast with their background. Simply add link-bg-<color> to the class of an <a> anchor element. The next example adds a link constrasting with the background color bg-success.

success

markdown
{{< card class="col-md-2 rounded-3 text-center" color="success" >}}{{< link href="#!" class="link-bg-success" >}}success{{< /link >}}{{< /card >}}

Generating helper

The SCSS generator for the colored links is defined in assets/scss/helpers/_colored-links.scss.

$custom-colors: (
    "primary": "light", 
    "secondary": "light", 
    "success": "light", 
    "danger": "light", 
    "dark": "light", 
    "black": "light",
    "info": "dark", 
    "warning": "dark", 
    "light": "dark", 
    "white": "dark",
    "body": "adaptive",
    "body-tertiary": "adaptive"
);

@each $color, $value in $custom-colors {
    $main-color: var(--bs-body-color);
    $emphasize-color: var(--bs-secondary-color);

    @if $value == "light" {
        $main-color: $white;
        $emphasize-color: shade-color($main-color, $link-shade-percentage);
    } @else if $value == "dark" {
        $main-color: $black;
        $emphasize-color: tint-color($main-color, $link-shade-percentage);
    }

    .link-bg-#{$color} {
        color: $main-color if($enable-important-utilities, !important, null); 

        &:hover,
        &:focus {
            color: $emphasize-color if($enable-important-utilities, !important, null);
        }
    }
}
