Image shortcodes
Dual theme images
Useful if you want to use a different image for the light and dark themes:
{{ dual_theme_image(light_src="img/paris_day.webp", dark_src="img/paris_night.webp" alt="The Eiffel tower") }}
Usage
{{/* dual_theme_image(light_src="img/paris_day.webp", dark_src="img/paris_night.webp" alt="The Eiffel tower") */}}
Invertible image
Good for graphs, line drawings, diagrams… Inverts the colours of the image. The source image will be used for the light theme.
{{ invertible_image(src="img/graph.webp", alt="Invertible graph") }}
Usage
{{/* invertible_image(src="img/graph.webp", alt="Invertible graph") */}}
Dimmable image
Images with too much brightness or contrast can be jarring against a dark background. Here's an example of a photograph that dims when the dark theme is active.
{{ dimmable_image(src="img/desert_by_oskerwyld.webp", alt="Photograph of a desert, heavenly sky") }}
Usage
{{/* dimmable_image(src="img/desert_by_oskerwyld.webp", alt="Photograph of a desert, heavenly sky") */}}
