Customizing Carbon theme

The theme used by Carbon can be customized to a large degree. By default, the libary @valtimo/components exports a theme from the following path: "node_modules/@valtimo/components/assets/css/carbon.scss". Also, a stylesheet is exported to ensure compatibility with the previous Beagle theme, FormIO forms and other Carbon specific overrides that are necessary: "node_modules/@valtimo/components/assets/css/compatibility.scss".

Custom color palette

You can override the default Valtimo blue colors by adding these to your styles.scss. See the example below and replace the hex values with your custom values.

It is recommended that the contrast between your custom color and #FFFFFF is 4.5:1 or higher. This can be checked by using the and setting your custom color as the background color and setting #FFFFFF as the foreground color.

If your custom color has a contrast ratio higher than 4.5:1, you can use the to create 10 shades based on your color. These 10 colors will be your new values with --vcds-color-10 being the lightest (almost white) color and --vcds-color-100 being the darkest (almost black).

Sidenote: Please make sure that you never use red as the main color. Red means "danger" and it can have a negative effect on the hierarchy of colors in the UI when used as the main color.
