Architecture

Mailpile supports themes. They live in mailpile/www/, so the directory mailpile/www/default contains the theme named default. Note that any files living in a theme folder will be accessible via the /static/* URL in the HTTP interface. It is not currently possible to access files via the HTTP interface from themes other than the current theme.

Mailpile's default theme contains:

• css/ all the CSS stylesheets get compiled to
• html/ all Jinja2 HTML templates
• img/ all images
• js/ all the JavaScript code
• less/ all of the LESS
• webfonts/ all of custom fonts & icon fonts
• theme.json a manifest file specifies strings, icons, and colors for JS to access

That is the structure that Mailpile's theme ships with, but when making your own theme, just copy this directory and organize your assets however you like.
