this might be difficult with jekyll. not sure though.

i was planning on trying this with my personal site, so interested in learning how to do this!

[BasThomas]

I’ve seen some forks of jekyll themes that already include it; that could be an option to explore!

Isn't this "just" CSS though? Why would Jekyll care what your CSS does?

[jessesquires]

@jpsim yeah, i think you're correct.

[BasThomas]

True. Is all of this custom css?

@BasThomas

Is all of this custom css?

What do you mean?

[BasThomas]

The website. Is it a jekyll theme’s css or was it modified? If it wasn’t modified, finding a dark theme of the current jekyll theme we use could be trivial.

Oh. Yeah 😊 it's custom CSS:

Well, "custom". It's Bootstrap with some minor overrides/customization.

Will probably need to switch to using SASS or something like that to make it easier.

[BasThomas]

I'm working on this 😊

[jessesquires]

@BasThomas nice! 🎉 looks good 🙌

however, #469 might make this easier (specifically, upgrading bootstrap)

[BasThomas]

Ah, I'm probably going to just finish this and once Bootstrap has been upgraded we can revisit it :)
