Hey everyone, im new, but i come for help, so im a front end engieneer and my team wants to use avo for building the UI, there's any way that i can custom the styles or add custom classes in the components to modify the UI ?
l
you can add custom CSS inside Avo
there isn't away of styling the UI components like you would in Bootstrap or a similar UI kit
but you can give it a try
all the components and views can be overriden if necesarry
a
is there any examples ? i haven't seen any in the docs
l
this is how you can add custom CSS to Avo
a
but if i dont want to use tailwind ?
for example i have an index view, with the table, but i want to modify the table css to look more like my design system, is there any way to do that ? a way to add custom classes ? to overide the initial styles ?
l

TBH, you probably won't get very far styling Avo to your style guide. or you will, but it will be a pretty painful experience
Avo's philosophy, right now, isn't to start from a design file and make it look like that
it's really more about creating any type of Content management system with Rails and having good design from the start
not sure if you ever developed for Wordpress, but it's kind of the same philosophy. you wouldn't really try to theme the Wordpress back-office. you just leave it as is
again, I'm not stopping you. I've seen folks style it in so many ways, but it's just not going to be the best experience
