Vivliostyle Base Theme

Base theme and CSS toolkit for Vivliostyle themes

Install

npm install --save @vivliostyle/theme-base
# or
yarn add @vivliostyle/theme-base

Use

In vivliostyle.config.js:

module.exports = {
  theme: '@vivliostyle/theme-base',
};

This package is designed to be modular so that it can be referenced and used by other themes. Each setting is configured as a CSS variable so that it can be changed to suit your preferences.

There're several presets to import modules we recommend.

• theme-all.css: imports all modules, including typesetting-specific features (cross reference, footnote etc.)
• theme-basic.css: imports basic modules such as css reset and basic styling

Import from vivliostyle.config.js

// Import theme-all.css
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    specifier: '@vivliostyle/theme-academic',
    import: 'theme-all.css',
  },
};
// Import theme-basic.css
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    specifier: '@vivliostyle/theme-academic',
    import: 'theme-basic.css',
  },
};
