Background Color

Utilities for controlling an element's background color.

Usage

Control the background color of an element using the bg={color} or backgroundColor={color} utilities.

<x.button bg="emerald-500">Button</x.button>

Changing opacity

Use color opacity variants to choose another opacity.

<x.div bg="purple-600-a100"></x.div>
<x.div bg="purple-600-a75"></x.div>
<x.div bg="purple-600-a50"></x.div>
<x.div bg="purple-600-a25"></x.div>
<x.div bg="purple-600-a0"></x.div>

Hover

Control the hover background color of an element using the hoverBg={color} or hoverBackgroundColor={color} utilities.

<x.button bg="indigo-500" hoverBg="indigo-800">
  Button
</x.button>

Responsive

To control the background color of an element at a specific breakpoint, use responsive object notation. For example, adding the property bg={{ md: "red-500" }} to an element would apply the bg="red-500" utility at medium screen sizes and above.

<x.button bg={{ md: 'red-500' }} />

Colors

If you'd like to customize your values for kind of colors, use the theme.colors section of your theme.

  export const theme = {
    colors: generateHexAlphaVariants({
      // ...
+     'deep-blue': '#00008b',

    }),
  }
