Hi everyone,

On behalf of the geOrchestra community, I’d like to share the EasyTheming plugin. It allows changing the MapStore2 project's theme dynamically via localConfig.json without a full rebuild.

Why use it?

While inline styles exist, managing complex CSS in JSON can sometimes be complex. 

Conversely, rebuilding the entire app just for theming is far from convenient.

EasyTheming lets you centralize rules in a standard CSS file:


JSON
{
"name": "EasyTheming",
"cfg": {
"stylesheet": "path/to/your/custom-theme.css"
}
}


We find this much more robust for quick project customization and visual branding.

Regards,

Gaëtan Bruel
