Templates
---------

[](#templates)

The Halfmoon ships with four different templates — two blog templates and two post templates.

Customization
-------------

[](#customization)

The Halfmoon framework uses custom CSS [properties](https://github.com/halfmoonui/halfmoon/blob/master/css/halfmoon-variables.css) to control all kind of styles such as colors, font properties or element dimensions. Therefore it is very easy to override things without actually modifying templates or other files.

You can instead add your custom definitions for those properties to the `Custom Properties` field in the **Global Data and Settings** section of the dashboard. For example it is possible to quickly change the font weight of all headlines by adding the following to the `Custom Properties` field:

```
--heading-font-weight: 600;

```

A full list of available properties can be found in the [Halfmoon repository](https://github.com/halfmoonui/halfmoon/blob/master/css/halfmoon-variables.css). Additionally there is also a [official guide](https://www.gethalfmoon.com/docs/customize/) about customization available in the Halfmoon docs.
