Adding custom styles to the devise theme is simple. There are two options available for doing so.
In the config.toml file of your website, you can set the following custom style
parameters:
[params.style]
backgroundColor = "#f8f9fa"
homeImageBorderColor = "#ffffff"
fontFamilyBase = "Helvetica Neue"
fontColor = "#212529"If you'd like to see other custom styles available as config parameters, please open an issue.
To add custom Sass styles to the devise theme, you'll need to add the following file to the assets directory of your site:
assets/sass/custom.scss
In the file, you can use Sass syntax to declare your custom styles. After doing so, you should see custom styling added to your devise based Hugo site.
