DaisyUI offers a variety of themes that you can easily apply to your Ruby on Rails application. To change the theme, you need to modify the data-theme attribute in the <body> tag of your application.html.erb layout file.
Open your config/meta.yml file.
Locate the LIGHT_THEME and DARK_THEME meta's
Update value with the desired theme name. For example:
You can replace "cupcake" with any theme name provided by DaisyUI.

Then call the new theme in your meta.yml
To customize the default fonts of your projects, import the custom fonts in application.css and assign them to your headers and p in that same file.
Most definitely! DaisyUi has a lot of components but frankly lacks pre-designed sections, for us developers who don't want to spend hours creating for scratch. You can easily find more Tailwind components in the library.
