Themes

[ShalokShalom]

So, you say index.html is the main theme, and when I go and look for HTML themes, they are most often also shipped with Javascript and CSS in the process.

Do I just throw them in the same directory with the index.html?

Do they cooperate at all?

[granicz]

Sure, I'd put JS/CSS artifacts in separate subfolders and reference them accordingly from the main template file.

[ShalokShalom]

How do I do this?

[granicz]

Basically, you can either 1) change the current index.html and add your own styling (CSS) and JS, or 2) take a different HTML theme/template and embed the WebSharper.UI templating markers in it (placeholders, inner templates, event handlers) to fit the F# code (or change the code as per your needs).

That doesnt really help me further.

Ok, let's take a step back: tell me what you are doing and what you get that is unexpected, and I will try to help.

I dont know, where to fill that in.
CSS and JS in the index.html or the WebSharper specifics into the new HTML stuff.
While I dont know where to start, and what to fill in at which place and so on.

@ShalokShalom I'm just speculating here but
the whole design of the website is defined in the index.html file, it's being used in this line https://github.com/granicz/SiteFi/blob/master/src/Hosted/Main.fs#L125

if you wanted to introduce themes you'd need to provide a different index.html and also update the Main.fs file to match your template with the HTML Holes you may have introduced or changed

Edit:
You could also just switch the index file's contents with different layouts and theming things, without actually changing the HTML wholes and no changes would be needed to the Main.fs file

I think I solved this
