Color coding of header images

[gedankenstuecke]

If I inferred it correctly the color codings of the header images are based on the tool/platform the features come from right now (and are manually done). I wonder about two things:

1. Would it be better to do the coding based on the category or feature type instead? I could imagine new platforms being added at some point which would require new colors and furthermore it might be unclear to users how to use the colors.
2. Automatically assigning color codes: If based on tags/categories, this could be handled in the CSS/rendering so that contributors don't have to understand the coding themselves :)

I like both ideas! For no.2, I don't really know how to do this yet

I think each of the boxes comes from this file unless I'm mistaken?

For each postbox you should have access to post.categories which would allow you to make an {% if category %} conditional which applies a specific class to the image depending on the category. Then you can define the classes in your CSS and make those correspond to specific colors.

That's at least the non-CSS part of the solution, but as my CSS skills are terrible I'll let you figure out the rest 😉
