We just released Indigo, a new theme for Open edX: [https://github.com/overhangio/indigo](https://github.com/overhangio/indigo)

 ![01-landing-page](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/openedx/original/1X/70c83e3003b357e6e8c9d13b3c54c0dabefb9807.png)

Indigo is stylish, functional and customizable. It was designed to be easily installable with [Tutor](https://docs.tutor.overhang.io), but it should also be easy enough to install on a native Open edX installation.

Let me know what you think!

I would give it a try.  
Is there a guide on how to install a new theme?  
I have ironwood.master running.

Hi @rakesh! You should first build the theme, with `tutor config render ...` and then move the resulting `indigo/` folder to `edx-platform/themes`. Then you should compile static assets and enable the theme for your platform. Please take a look at the following docs:  
[https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/open-release-ironwood.master/ecommerce/theming.html](https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/open-release-ironwood.master/ecommerce/theming.html)  
[https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/open-release-ironwood.master/ecommerce/theming.html#compiling-theme-sass](https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/open-release-ironwood.master/ecommerce/theming.html#compiling-theme-sass)

Hi @Tommy! Please create a new topic where you describe your own issue. There, you should paste the _exact_ command that you are running and that leads to the error.
