Theming
We have a default theme of colors, styles, and fonts. These are defined utilizing CSS variables which you can override with your own brand styles. You can pick and choose what you override, you don't need to modify all the values.
To use CSS variables you'll need to add variables to your stylesheet or <style> tag in your HTML document. In the examples below we’ve used <style> tags. Add the style tag to the <head> of your document.
// Open the style tag
<style>
// select the widget element
sm-widget {
// List all your css variables
--<css-variable-name>: <value>;
}
// Close the style tag
</style>
Changing the font
There are two types of fonts you can use. Web safe fonts and custom fonts. Web safe fonts are ones that are already included on most computers. They do not require any font installation. Custom fonts will require you to install the font. You can list multiple fonts, it will try and use the first one defined and fallback to the others.
Usage
<style>
sm-widget {
--font-family-primary: 'Times, "Times New Roman", Georgia, serif';
}
</style>
Palette
The widget is using multiple numeric color scales. A color scale is a group of color shades that listed from light to dark. Where 100 is the lightest color and 900 is the darkest. Our two main scales are primary and secondary.

Debug
If you are curious about what style an element uses, you can inspect the element using your browser dev tools. For example, if you inspect the connect button, you'll see it has a class sm-text-primary-300. This means it uses the primary 300 shade for text. Another example is sm-bg-secondary-100, this means it's using the secondary 100 color for the background.
