Description

I want to change neutral color to custom brand color. How can I do this? I have already tried different methods, but I have not succeeded in doing this.

export default defineAppConfig({
  ui: {
    colors: {
      neutral: 'custom_color'
    }
  }
})

@alfUMi It seems that first you need to define a custom_color in css. You can read about it here: https://ui.nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/theme/design-system

@molsrg I tried adding a variable to @theme. Then I set the variable in app.config.ts. However, it doesn't work, the color is not applied.

Did you also add the new color in your nuxt.config.ts? https://ui.nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/theme/design-system#extend-colors

@benjamincanac I don't think I've done that yet. I'll try it today.

@benjamincanac

I added color to nuxt.config.ts

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  ui: {
    theme: {
      colors: [
        'light-gray'
      ],
    },
  },
})

Here is my app.config.ts

export default defineAppConfig({
  ui: {
    colors: {
      neutral: 'light-gray',
    }
  }
})

And this is my css file

@theme {
  --ui-light-gray: #242431;
}

And it doesn't work!

I accidentally closed the issue

As mentioned here https://ui.nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/theme/design-system#colors, make sure to define all shades from 50 to 950 for each color.

@benjamincanac I added all shades for each color (from 50 to 950). However, I still can't assign my own color, and if I change one of the original ones, it also doesn't work.

Only original colors from tailwind

Then I'm out of resources, would you mind providing a reproduction so I can help you better?

Would you be able to provide a reproduction? 🙏

More info

Why do I need to provide a reproduction?

Reproductions make it possible for us to triage and fix issues quickly with a relatively small team. It helps us discover the source of the problem, and also can reveal assumptions you or we might be making.

What will happen?

If you've provided a reproduction, we'll remove the label and try to reproduce the issue. If we can, we'll mark it as a bug and prioritise it based on its severity and how many people we think it might affect.

If needs reproduction labeled issues don't receive any substantial activity (e.g., new comments featuring a reproduction link), they will be closed automatically after a while. That's not because we don't care! At any point, feel free to comment with a reproduction and we'll reopen it.

How can I create a reproduction?

We have templates to create a minimal reproduction:

• Nuxt: https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/nuxt-ui3-n3sxks
• Vue: https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/nuxt-ui3-vue-4h5gqn

Please ensure that the reproduction is as minimal as possible. See more details in our guide.
