Re: [Tiki-devel] Creating custom theme

Hi,

thanks for answering.

I now put my mytheme.scss file in the
_custom/shared/themes/mytheme/css/ directory. But this does not change
the generation process: running the "npm run watch" the file
mytheme.scss is compiled to mytheme.css only in public directory. Is
this correct? 

Wht to do if going to production: Should I take the public directory
tree or the _custom or both?

Still a little bit confused...
