Setting Up a Custom Theme

Customize your SlowNet site with your own colors, fonts, and style.

Overview

SlowNet lets you fully customize the look of your page.
You can pick a built-in theme by theme_id, or define your own with custom_theme.

Using a built-in theme

To apply a pre-made theme, send the theme_id. For example:

{
  "theme_id": "0cd5197e-5f08-428d-bb9d-8de85237b29b"
}

Using a custom theme

If you want full control, omit theme_id and pass a custom_theme object.

Example

{
  "custom_theme": {
    "background_color": "#0d0d0d",
    "primary_color": "#3FF5B5",
    "text_color": "#ffffff",
    "font_family": "sans-serif",
    "accent_color": "#28D6FF"
  }
}

This will override any preset theme.

• To go 100% custom, leave theme_id empty or null.
