Font Style

Learn how the font style attributes work.

color

The color attribute let's you specify the color of the text.

You can learn about the syntax of this attribute in Color Syntax.

Example:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
fn app(cx: Scope) -> Element {
    render!(
        label {
            color: "green",
            "Hello, World!"
        }
    )
}
}

Another example showing inheritance:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
fn app(cx: Scope) -> Element {
    render!(
        rect {
            color: "blue",
            label {
                "Hello, World!"
