I am creating a blog with blogdown and the academic theme, which apparently is now available on the repo of Wowchemy. This repo doesn't have the same structure compared to the previous academic theme and I am a bit lost.
I would like to change some CSS components but I can't figure out how to do so. Here's what I tried so far.
Modify the .css and .scss files
I tried to modify the public/css/academic.css file and the resources/_gen/assets/scss/scss/main.scss_6c95cc1249b26b124274204dbf970c34.content file. In both cases, the changes are reset after blogdown::stop_server() and blogdown::serve_site().
This is also the case when I modify both of them before running the two blogdown functions.
Create a custom.css
As said in the Wowchemy documentation, I tried to put my changes in assets/scss/custom.css (I had to create the `scss folder as well), but apparently it does not influence the theme.
Question: How can I change some CSS parameters in the "new" Academic theme?
