Variables

CSS Custom Properties

// Adjusts the background color, visible if no image is shown
--splash-bg

// Adds a background image. It needs to be formatted with url(), 
// as if it was the background-image declaration.
// --splash-image: url('http:example.com/image.webp');
--splash-image

Guidelines

Do not put a Splash inside a .container element. The container limits the width of its children, and the Splash is a full-width component.
