+# How to add a new Theme
+
+## Preparation
+
+Create a new directory with the name of the new theme in src/theme.
+
+## Create new theme
+
+1. Create a new scss file with the same structure as `_dark-theme.scss` and style it using material palette.
+
+2. Create a new scss file in your working theme directory named {YourThemeName}.const.ts and copy the structure of `darkTheme.const.ts`.
+
+## Add new theme to theme manager
+
+Import the file in `styles.scss` and add the new theme to theme menu in `header.component.html`.
+
+## Configure your theme 
+
+Start editing the variables and see the magic happen. We recommend to use [material colors](https://material.io/tools/color).
