Flavors
A flavor sets header/footer geometry, logo placement, spacing, and component
presets. palette supplies colors; navigation can replace the suggested
navigator independently.
| Flavor | Character | Default Navigation |
|---|---|---|
"minimal" | Quiet heading and compact footer. Default flavor. | None |
"simple" | Spacious classic composition. | None |
"cambridge" | Structured section/subsection bands. | Context |
"darmstadt" | Structured bands and a footer logo. | Dots |
"dewdrop" | Lightweight heading and slide dots. | Dots |
"stargazer" | Accent heading and linked section tabs. | Tabs |
"portico" | Metadata band, flat panels, and a side outline. | Sidebar |
#show: ambrosia-theme.with(
flavor: "stargazer", palette: "midnight", navigation: "tree",
)
Most flavors use == slide headings; Cambridge uses ===.
Explicit slide(...) works in every flavor.
Portico’s Side Panel
sidebar-background: none keeps the column transparent. auto enables the
flavor’s contrasting paint; a solid color sets your own. Move it with
navigation-side: "left" or change the width with navigation-width.
Choosing another navigator releases the side column while retaining Portico’s metadata band, spacing, and flat surfaces.
Use title-layout and ending-layout for separate opening/closing compositions.
For a reusable custom preset, see flavor descriptors.
