Cannot find documentation on template variables... (showRssFeed, showToggleTheme, etc)

[BallisticPain]

I'm brand new to Astro. I'm not new to development. I found your template and it is what made me decide to check out Astro for these projects I'm working on. I love the work and effort you have put into this. I look forward to AstroWind v2. I am happy to create a PR to add some documentation about using some of these more advanced boolean flags. I tried to go through the code and figure out how to use/pass them through. I'm sure if I understood more about Astro, I probably would know the answer, but since I don't, I would love to learn and then help this project by getting it into some documentation!

So... I'll track through what I've found. What I would really like is to remove the RSS button next to the CtA button in the top right of the index.astro page. I figured out that the Header.astro is what contains showRssFeed variable. This is passed in through the PageLayout.astro. I haven't figured out where that page gets it's variables. There is another two variables getting passed into the <Header> tag ... isSticky and showToggleTheme. I've also not been able to find those. I assume this means they are Astro variables that I would need to put into a configuration somewhere.

If someone can direct me where I should put those, I would greatly appreciate it. I would be happy to make a PR and get some examples into the documentation. I believe since AstroWind is a popular template, you will get a lot of Astro newbies. The more examples we can get into your documentation the faster we'll all get up to speed.

One other small thing I noticed. I couldn't figure out how to "download" the template to use it. It was much easier once I put the Astro docs to use... I used npm create astro@latest -- --template onwidget/astrowind which made it quite easy. I had to try a couple of times to get that working properly, but that line got me going immediately.

Just putting some other ideas in here that I feel I should document when I submit my PR...

flat-color-icons ... it took me a while to find how to include additional icons from this set. I was able to work my way backwards, but some links in the documentation would have helped me go faster. I tried searching in this repository, but it wouldn't pull up anything other than the files that were using the icons. Not the configuration file astro.config.mjs where I needed to input those additional icons I wanted.

Thanks again for such a great template to work with! It has been a pleasure even with these hiccups. I'm used to having to dig... :)

Hi @BallisticPain,

Brand new to Astro as well, and came here with the same question. I found the const props containing showRssFeed in Header.astro, but the const set there aren't used. I can't for the life of me figure out where they do get set.

Did you find the answer yet, or, can someone point us in the right direction?

Was anyone able to find an answer to that question?

In Header.astro this code is displaying the RSS button, just put it in comment
{
showRssFeed && (
<a
class="text-muted dark:text-gray-400 hover:bg-gray-100 dark:hover:bg-gray-700 focus:outline-none focus:ring-4 focus:ring-gray-200 dark:focus:ring-gray-700 rounded-lg text-sm p-2.5 inline-flex items-center"
aria-label="RSS Feed"
href={getAsset('/rss.xml')}
>


)
}
