+**Pro tip:** If you're like us and prefer your navigation sticky, you can add `sticky_sidenav: true` on [page](#layout-page), [project](#layout-project), and [team member](#layout-team-member) layouts to have the sidenav follow as you scroll.

 ### Color and font configuration
 
 The default colors and fonts can be configured in the `_data/theme.yml` file.
