Using Themes

Using the default theme

Social Plus UIKit uses the default theme as part of the design language.

Theme customization

With no customization, UIKit already looks good. However, if you wish to customize the theme, you can declare changes to both colors and typography.

Colors

UIKit uses a small set of declared colors to simplify the design task for developers. These colors are automatically rendered at appropriate shades to communicate states and interactions to the users.

  2. Set the theme instance through AmityUIKitManager

// default colors
let myTheme = AmityTheme()
    
// partially overriding colors
let myTheme = AmityTheme(
    primary: UIColor.systemBlue,
    secondary: UIColor.systemOrange)

// fully overriding colors
let myTheme = AmityTheme(
    primary: UIColor.systemBlue,
    secondary: UIColor.systemOrange,
    alert: UIColor.systemRed,
    highlight: UIColor.systemBlue,
    base: UIColor.white,
    baseInverse: UIColor.black,
    messageBubble: UIColor.systemTeal,
    messageBubbleInverse: UIColor.systemRed)

AmityUIKitManager.set(theme: myTheme)

    title: UIFont(name: "Georgia", size: 20)!)
