Themes
The eleven themes that ship in the box — what each one is for and which to pick.
Juicer bundles eleven themes in the docs/themes/ directory of the
repository. They’re all hand-rolled CSS, zero-framework, light/dark
aware, and tuned for a specific shape of site. A clone of juicer
comes with all of them; to use one on your own site, copy the
directory or pull it via juicer theme add (each theme’s section
shows the exact command).
The shared theming model — palette tokens, customCSS, the
file-replacement override pattern — lives in
Reference → Theming and applies identically to
every bundled theme.
Which one do I want?

| A blog — dated posts, author bylines, tag/year archives | juicerblog |
| Long-form prose / study notes — essays, footnotes, math | juicerstudy |
| A product / SaaS landing page | juicerlanding |

| A backlink-driven wiki / Zettelkasten | juicerwiki |
| A recipe site — ingredients, methods, schema.org Recipe | juicercook |

What each section covers
Every theme section in this group documents the same three layers:
- Overview — what the theme ships with, when to pick it, when to pick something else.
- Configuration — every
site.tomlkey the theme reads, every[<theme>]palette token, every per-page frontmatter knob. - Demo site — a live demo rendered with the theme itself. The
deploy pipeline builds each demo (sources live under
docs/demos/<theme>/) into/themes/<theme>/demo/, so the leaf serves the rendered demo at that URL. The exception is juicerdocs — this docs site is built with juicerdocs, so the juicerdocs Demo site leaf points back at/.
