Choosing a theme

Open Deckset’s theme picker to preview the available themes. Select a theme, then choose one of its color swatches. You can change the typography and colors without rewriting your slides.

Save the theme in Markdown

To keep the theme choice with your presentation when sharing or using version control, add a global command at the top of the Markdown file:

theme: Ledger, 4

Use the theme name shown in the picker. The number is the color swatch’s position, starting at 1 from the left. In this example, 4 selects Ledger’s Carbon variant.

Use one theme command per presentation. See Custom Theming for slide-specific styling overrides.
