Usage

Before mounting (rendering) your React application:

• global theming:

  import { canvas } from '@instructure/ui-themes'
  
  canvas.use()
  

• application level theming:

  import { canvas } from '@instructure/ui-themes'
  
  ReactDOM.render(
    <InstUISettingsProvider theme={canvas}>
      <App />
    </InstUISettingsProvider>,
    element
  )
  

To override the theme variables:

• globally:

  import { canvas } from '@instructure/ui-themes'
  
  canvas.use({ overrides: { colors: { brand: 'red' } } })
  

• application level:

  import { canvas } from '@instructure/ui-themes'
  const themeOverrides = { colors: { brand: 'red' } }
  
  ReactDOM.render(
    <InstUISettingsProvider theme={{ ...canvas, ...themeOverrides }}>
      <App />
    </InstUISettingsProvider>,
    element
  )
