Documentation.js supports customizable themes for HTML output. A theme is a Node.js module that exports a single function with the following signature:

/**
 * @function
 * @param {Array<Object>} comments - an array of comments to be output
 * @param {Object} options - theme options
 * @param {ThemeCallback} callback - see below
 */

/**
 * @callback ThemeCallback
 * @param {?Error} error
 * @param {?Array<vinyl.File>} output
 */

The theme function should call the callback with either an error, if one occurs, or an array of vinyl File objects.

The theme is free to implement HTML generation however it chooses. See the default theme for some ideas.

Theming Markdown

The default Markdown generator for documentation.js isn't customizable - instead of a plain-text theme, it's generated by creating an AST and then rendering it with remark. If you need something extra in Markdown, you can either rally for that thing to be included in the default theme, or you can hack around it by using an HTML theme that outputs Markdown.
