### daisyUI color rules
1. daisyUI adds semantic color names to the Tailwind CSS colors.
2. Use daisyUI color names in utility classes as you use other Tailwind CSS color names. For example, `bg-primary` uses the primary color for the background.
3. The value of each daisyUI color name is a variable. Thus, the color can change with the theme.
4. Do not use `dark:` with daisyUI color names.
5. If possible, use only daisyUI color names. This lets colors change automatically with the theme.
6. If you use a Tailwind CSS color name such as `red-500`, its color stays the same in all themes.
7. If you use a daisyUI color name such as `primary`, its color changes with the theme.
8. Avoid Tailwind CSS color names for text. For example, `text-gray-800` on `bg-base-100` becomes unreadable in a dark theme because `bg-base-100` is dark.
9. `*-content` colors must have clear contrast with their related colors.
10. Use `base-*` colors for most of the page. Use the default variant for all elements. Use `primary` only for the most important element on the page. Use it only once.
11. In rare cases, you can use a Tailwind CSS color if content must keep the same color in all themes. For example, you can use `text-red-500` instead of `text-error`. For an SVG icon or chart, a fixed color can be necessary.

### Enable and apply themes

The default configuration enables `light` and `dark`. In the daisyUI plugin, select specified themes, all themes, or no built-in themes:

```css
@plugin "daisyui" {
  themes: light --default, dark --prefersdark, cupcake;
}
```

- Use `themes: all;` to enable all built-in themes.
- Use `themes: false;` to disable all built-in themes. Usually, do this before you define only custom themes.
- Add `data-theme="THEME_NAME"` to `<html>` or a nested element. You can nest themes with no depth limit.

```html
<html data-theme="dark">
  <section data-theme="light">
    <div data-theme="retro">Nested theme</div>
  </section>
</html>
```

### daisyUI custom theme with custom colors
A CSS file that contains Tailwind CSS, daisyUI, and a custom daisyUI theme has this structure:
```css
@import "tailwindcss";
@plugin "daisyui";
@plugin "daisyui/theme" {
