title: Re-use CSS classes
order: 30
---

While you can style your pattern however you want, try to re-use the CSS class names that
are in use in our default [theme plugin](/reference/packages/plugin-theme/).

Doing so will ensure consistent styling for patterns.
feat: Flat import of markdown repo This is a flat (without history) import of (some of) the content from our markdown module. We've imported this without history because the repo contains our blog posts and showcases posts content prior to porting them to strapi. Since this contains many images, it would balloon the size of this repo to import the full history. Instead, please refer to the history of the (archived) markdown repo at: https://github.com/freesewing/markdown 2021-08-25 16:09:31 +02:00			`---`
