Customize the default theme

Feature request

What problem does this feature solve?

I didn't find any option to add logo/icon to the navbar, so customizing on a new theme is not a good idea, where we have to only add a div.

What does the proposed API look like?

Not sure

How should this be implemented in your opinion?

By adding the option of customizing the default theme.

Are you willing to work on this yourself?

I will try.

Sorry but no. The whole point is the default theme was designed to fit a specific use case and not aiming to be generically extendable. We have no intention to increase the maintenance surface of the default theme. If you have some specific need, you can eject eject or build your own theme.

I get that

Note, however, once you eject, you are on your own and won't be receiving future updates or bug fixes to the default theme even if you upgrade VuePress.

But if that's the case, then how can I update the changes that Vuepress will make in the default theme.

@ulivz did you consider having the default theme as a separate plugin for 1.0 so that ejecting is not necessary anymore but rather allow people to fork the default theme?
