#### --theme
When you use the `--theme` argument, the default theme will be copied into a directory
called `theme` in your source directory so that you can modify it.
The theme is selectively overwritten, this means that if you don't want to overwrite a
specific file, just delete it and the default file will be used.
## Not yet implemented
In the future I would like `mdBook init` to be able to:
- Copy the default theme to the `src` directory in a `theme` directory when using a flag like `--theme`.
The user could then tweak the theme to his needs.
- Generate files that are in `SUMMARY.md`. If the user has already created a `SUMMARY.md` file and added some entries but did
not create the corresponding files, init command should create the files for him.

- ***book.css*** is the style used in the output. If you want to change the design of your book, this is probably the file you want to modify. Sometimes in conjunction with `index.hbs` when you want to radically change the layout.
- ***book.js*** is mostly used to add client side functionality.
***Note:*** *When you overwrite a file, it is possible that you break some functionality. Therefore I recommend to use the file from the default theme as template and only add / modify what you need. In the future you will be able to copy the default theme into your source directory automatically by using `mdbook init --theme`.*
