You can also use sub-folders to keep things organized Also within `./public` you'll find normal website assets, including `favicon.ico`, `manifest.json`, `robots.txt` and `web-icons/*`. There's no need to modify these, but you can do so if you wish. ### The Conf File πŸ“„ All app config is specified in [`/public/conf.yml`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/public/conf.yml) (in [YAML Format](https://yaml.org/)).

For best results, use either png or svg formats. - To automatically fetch an icon from items URL, just set icon field to `favicon` - To use a Font-Awesome icon, specify the category (`fas`, `fab`, `far`, `fal` or`fad`), followed by a space then `fa-` and the icon name. For example: `fas fa-rocket`, `fab fa-monero`, `fal fa-duck` or `fad fa-glass-whiskey-rocks`. Note that light (`fal`) and duotone (`fad`) icons are only available with Font Awesome Pro, to use this, you need to set you're kit ID under `appConfig.fontAwesomeKey`. ### Theming 🎨 The app comes with a number of built-in themes, but it's also easy to write you're own. Once you've done so you can select you're theme fro the dropdown menu, and like other visual settings, you're chosen theme is saved in local storage, so will load automatically when you next visit the page. The theme switching is done by simply changing the `data-theme` attribute on the root DOM element, which can then be targeted by CSS. First off, in order for the theme to show up in the theme switcher, it needs to be added to the config file, under `appConfig.cssThemes`, either as a string, or an array of strings for multiple themes. For example: ```yaml appConfig: cssThemes: ['tiger', 'another-theme'] ``` You can now create a block to target you're theme with `html[data-theme='my-theme']{}` and set some styles. The easiest method is by setting CSS variables, but you can also directly override elements by their selector. As an example, see the [built-in CSS themes](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/styles/color-themes.scss). ```css html[data-theme='tiger'] { --primary: #f58233; --item-group-background: #0b1021; } ``` Alternatively, you can load an external stylesheet. Pass either a URL to a .css file, or an array or URLs to `appConfig.externalStyleSheet`. The stylesheet will then be pre-loaded, and can then be enabled from the UI using the theme switcher. ```yaml appConfig: externalStyleSheet: 'https://example.com/my-stylesheet.css' ``` --- ## Notes ### Credits πŸ† The app makes use of the following components, kudos to their respective authors - [`vue-select`](https://github.com/sagalbot/vue-select) - Dropdown component by @sagalbot - [`vue-js-modal`](https://github.com/euvl/vue-js-modal) - Modal component by @euvl - [`v-tooltip`](https://github.com/Akryum/v-tooltip) - Tooltip component by @Akryum ### License πŸ“œ ``` Copyright Β© 2021 Alicia Sykes Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the β€œSoftware”), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
