FAQPage Schema
How do I create a custom Streamlit theme for my app?▼

To create a custom Streamlit theme, you edit the .streamlit/config.toml file and add a [theme] section to define color palettes, typography, and borders. Restarting the Streamlit server applies the visual changes.

Can I configure both light and dark modes in Streamlit theming?▼

Yes, Streamlit theming supports multi-mode configurations including both light and dark modes. You define these modes within the .streamlit/config.toml file to ensure brand consistency across different user interface preferences.

Does Streamlit theming support sidebar and widget styling without custom CSS?▼

Streamlit theming supports sidebar and widget styling natively through config.toml. It handles color, typography, and layout customization for unified visual identity, actively discouraging custom CSS unless you explicitly request it.

What's the best way to apply brand colors and typography to a Streamlit app?▼

The best way to apply brand colors and typography is by generating a Streamlit theme configuration. This structured approach uses config.toml to ensure cohesive branding and accessibility across both prototypes and production deployments.

Why are my Streamlit theme changes not showing up after editing config.toml?▼

Streamlit theme changes in config.toml require a server restart to display. If the theme is not working, verify your [theme] section syntax and ensure the Streamlit server has been fully restarted to apply the new visual identity.

Do I need custom CSS to customize borders and layout in Streamlit?▼

You do not need custom CSS to customize borders and layout in Streamlit. Comprehensive border and layout customization is handled natively through the theme configuration in your config.toml file for visual polish.
