        I am not an expert but I would name an empty text file to custom.css and put it in the css folder

          @thedoorsfanatic right… to create the initial text file its

          touch ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css
          

          then u can edit it…with your favorite editor

            I just set up another laptop board. Used @sdetweil’s installer. Fantastic! Copied the main.css file and renamed it to custom.css. Done!

              @Mykle1 but that is sorta heavy weight . cause now you are overriding every class defined in main.css…

                Well, I emptied the body and deleted everything else. Did I forget to mention that? 🙂

                  @Mykle1 yes… easier just to do the touch thing… create an empty file… (for users just starting out)

                        Or, have a blank custom.css file added during installation. Easier for the users just starting out. 😉
