Thank you for purchasing my theme. I'd be glad to help you if you have any questions relating to this theme. No guarantees, but I'll do my best to assist.

A) Installation - top

When you only need to include Studio compiled CSS or JS, below is the required core css and javascript. 

<!-- Core CSS -->
<link href="assets/css/vendor.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="assets/css/app.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<!-- Core JS -->
<script src="assets/js/vendor.min.js"></script>
<script src="assets/js/app.min.js"></script>
OR

If you wish to configure the scss files settings, follow the following step to install webpack in your operating system.
You may refer to their official documentation for how to setup the development environment.
Setup Guide 

cd /your-path-url/template_html/
npm install 
npm run start

// generate completed html / js / css
npm run build

Make sure that you are running at least node 22.x and npm 11.x.x by running node -v and npm -v in a terminal/console window. Older versions produce errors, but newer versions are fine.

<body class="theme-gray-700">...</body>
<body class="theme-gray-800">...</body>
<body class="theme-gray-900">...</body>

H) Dark Mode - top

If you wish to enable the dark mode instead, you can easily do so by adding the data-bs-theme="dark" attribute from the HTML tag. This will disable the default dark mode and enable the light mode theme.

Please note that once you add the data-bs-theme="dark" attribute, the dark mode theme will persist even if the user refreshes the page or navigates to a different page within the application.

Here's an example:

change from 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
</html>
to 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" data-bs-theme="dark">
</html>

With this example, the data-bs-theme="dark" attribute has been added to html tag. This will enable the dark mode to the entire page.

OR

If you want to apply dark / light mode to a single component only, you can add the data-bs-theme="dark|light" attribute to that component. 

<div class="card" data-bs-theme="dark">
  <div class="card-body">
    <!-- your component content here -->
  </div>
</div>

J) RTL Mode - top

To enable RTL mode, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the /src/_variables.scss file in your code editor.
  2. Find the $enable-rtl variable and change its value to true: 
    $enable-rtl: true;
    This will enable RTL mode for your application.
  3. Save the changes to the file.
  4. Open your terminal or command prompt and navigate to the root directory of your project.
  5. Run the following command to regenerate the app.min.css file: 
    npm run build
    This will regenerate the app.min.css file with the changes you made to the $enable-rtl variable.

K) SCSS Configuration - top

Global Variables

The /src/_variables.scss file contains the variables that control the styles of your application.

To edit these variables, navigate to the /src/_variables.scss file in your code editor and modify the values of the variables to suit your needs. 

<!-- global variable -->
/src/_variables.scss

Dark Mode Variables

The /src/_variables-dark.scss file contains the variables that control the styles for dark mode. These variables are used in conjunction with the variables in the /src/_variables.scss file to provide different values for light and dark modes. 

<!-- dark mode variable -->
/src/_variables-dark.scss
