Usage

Theme options

Key Default Value Description
basePath / Root url for the theme

Example usage

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: `@lekoarts/gatsby-theme-cara`,
      options: {
        // basePath defaults to `/`
        basePath: `/sideproject`
      }
    }
  ]
};

Additional configuration

In addition to the theme options, there are a handful of items you can customize via the siteMetadata object in your site's gatsby-config.js

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  siteMetadata: {
    // Used for the title template on pages other than the index site
    siteTitle: `Cara`,
    // Default title of the page
    siteTitleAlt: `Cara - @lekoarts/gatsby-theme-cara`,
    // Can be used for e.g. JSONLD
    siteHeadline: `Cara - Gatsby Theme from @lekoarts`,
    // Will be used to generate absolute URLs for og:image etc.
    siteUrl: `https://cara.lekoarts.de`,
    // Used for SEO
    siteDescription: `Playful and Colorful One-Page portfolio featuring Parallax effects and animations`,
    // Will be set on the <html /> tag
    siteLanguage: `en`,
    // Used for og:image and must be placed inside the `static` folder
    siteImage: `/banner.jpg`,
    // Twitter Handle
    author: `@lekoarts_de`
  }
};

Editing the content

The content of the page is managed by .mdx files inside the theme's sections folder. You can edit the files by shadowing them in your site.

These files are available: intro.mdx, projects.mdx, about.mdx, contact.mdx

See the example that shadows via src/@lekoarts/gatsby-theme-cara/sections/intro.mdx:

# Hi, I'm Jane Doe

I'm creating noice web experiences for the next generation of consumer-facing companies

The other headings should be <h2> headings!

You also have access to the <ProjectCard /> component/shortcode which is used in the projects.mdx section. The component takes the props title (string), link (string), bg (string) and children (React.ReactNode). You would use it like that:

## Projects

<ProjectCard title="Freiheit" link="https://www.behance.net/gallery/58937147/Freiheit" bg="linear-gradient(to right, #D4145A 0%, #FBB03B 100%)">
This project is my entry to Adobe's #ChallengeYourPerspective contest.
</ProjectCard>
