              200: "#bbc3be",
              300: "#a1aba5",
              400: "#87938b",
              500: "#6d7972",
              600: "#555f58",
              700: "#323c34",
              800: "#232924",

            accent: {
              50: "#ede4d3",
              100: "#fbe3b2",
              200: "#f6d086",
              300: "#f1be58",
              400: "#eca419",

          },
        },
      },
    },
  ],
};

export default settings;
```

**🚨NOTE**: Since this theme is based on Chakra, we require that the theme colors should be color values from `50` - `900`. For example, here's what the default colors look like:

```json
// value of theme.colors
{
  "primary": {
    "50": "#e9f5f2",
    "100": "#d4dcd9",
    "200": "#bbc3be",
    "300": "#a1aba5",
    "400": "#87938b",
    "500": "#6d7972",
    "600": "#555f58",
    "700": "#323c34",
    "800": "#232924",
    "900": "#272727"
  },
  "accent": {
    "50": "#ede4d3",
    "100": "#fbe3b2",
    "200": "#f6d086",
    "300": "#f1be58",
    "400": "#eca419",
    "500": "#d49212",
    "600": "#a5710b",
    "700": "#775105",
    "800": "#483100",
    "900": "#1d0f00"
  }
}
```

## Additional Settings

In addition to the theme options, there are a handful of items you can customize via the `frontity` object in your site’s `frontity.settings.js`

```js
// frontity.settings.js
const settings = {
  state: {
    frontity: {
      url: "your website url",
      title: "Your website title",
      description: "Your website description",
    },
