If you want to create custom color variables like instagram color. Then in your variables.scss file add the code given below.
:root {
--ion-color-instagram: #fd4c76;
--ion-color-instagram-rgb: 253, 76, 118;
--ion-color-instagram-contrast: #ffffff;
--ion-color-instagram-contrast-rgb: 255, 255, 255;
--ion-color-instagram-shade: #fa3462;
--ion-color-instagram-tint: #d61845;
}
.ion-color-instagram {
--ion-color-base: var(--ion-color-instagram) !important;
--ion-color-base-rgb: var(--ion-color-instagram-rgb) !important;
--ion-color-contrast: var(--ion-color-instagram-contrast) !important;
--ion-color-contrast-rgb: var(--ion-color-instagram-contrast-rgb) !important;
--ion-color-shade: var(--ion-color-instagram-shade) !important;
--ion-color-tint: var(--ion-color-instagram-tint) !important;
}
Now, we can use ionic color variables in our app. For example, we can use like this
<ion-icon name="logo-twitter" color="secondary"></ion-icon>
<ion-item color="primary"></ion-item>
This is custom instagram color we created above.
<ion-icon name="logo-instagram" color="instagram"></ion-icon>
