Customization

All the code is using variables and is comented, It's easy to customize the project to your own, and this sections are the principal customizable elements in the Startpage:

Links

You can change the links (and the icons too) in the HTML Code:

  <a 
    href="https://github.com/" 
    target="blank" 
    class="qlink__link qlink__link-1"
  >
    <i class="qlink__icon" data-feather="github"></i>
  </a>

Change the link in the href property with the link you want. (The target="blank" makes the link to open a new tab with the link you choose). The Project uses Feather icons for the icons, and you can change them in the data-feather="" property with the name of the icon.

Colors

In the CSS code you can always change the variables for both themes (Dark and Light)

/* Light theme  */
:root {
    --accent: #186efdaa;
    --bg: #f5f5f5;
    --sbg: #e4e6e6;
    --fg: #3a3a3a;
    --imgcol: linear-gradient(
        rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7),
        rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7)
    );
}

/* Dark theme  */
.darktheme {
    --accent: #186efd60;
    --bg: #1e1f21;
    --sbg: #2c2d31;
    --fg: #d8dee9;
    --imgcol: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7));
}

Image Background

You can set your own background image with the variable --imgbg and set the route to the image you want It's disable by default. If you uncomment the variable, it has by default this image:

It has a black filter by default in --imgcol, and it'ts value is: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7) and rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7) for the dark theme. You can change them and the opacity for a better experience with your image.

Greetings

You can put your name and change the greetings.

var name = 'John Doe';
var lateTxt = 'Go to Sleep! ';
var morningTxt = 'Good morning! ';
var afterTxt = 'Good afternoon ';
var evenTxt = 'Good evening ';

It'll change in order of the hour.

Weather Info

For setting up the Weather widget you're going to need an API Key in: https://openweathermap.org/. Once you have your Key you'll need to set yourlatitude and longitude, you can use: https://www.latlong.net/ to get them. Once you have the data, you'll need to set them in the weather.js in the js folder. The code is

If you don't like to have your API Key public, you can make the repo into a private one. You can still use the Github Pages service.

Weather Icons

The icons by themselves have now 4 different color schemes:

• Nord Using the Nord Color Scheme and easy-to-eyes colors
• OneDark (Default one) Using the One Dark Pro color scheme
• Dark For White theme only users that want a minimalist look
• White For Dark theme only users that want a minimalist look

You set the icon theme changing this two lines of code in the index.html and weather.js files:

• If you want the Dark icon theme, change the OneDark to Dark
• If you want the White icon theme, change the OneDark to White
• If you want the Nord icon theme, change the OneDark to Nord

For example if I'd like to use the Dark icon theme:

<div class="weather-icon">
    <img src="icons/OneDark/unknown.png" />
</div>
<!-- Change it to: -->
<div class="weather-icon">
    <img src="icons/Dark/unknown.png" />
</div>

function displayWeather() {
    iconElement.innerHTML = `<img src="icons/OneDark/${weather.iconId}.png"/>`;
    tempElement.innerHTML = `${weather.temperature.value}°<span class="darkfg">${tempUnit}</span>`;
    descElement.innerHTML = weather.description;
}

//Change it to:
function displayWeather() {
    iconElement.innerHTML = `<img src="icons/Dark/${weather.iconId}.png"/>`;
    tempElement.innerHTML = `${weather.temperature.value}°<span class="darkfg">${tempUnit}</span>`;
    descElement.innerHTML = weather.description;
}
