Using Aether
Aether comes with some additional custom features

The new version of Aether now uses Super’s native sidebar menu. You can enable it by going to Site > Navigation > Sidebar and enabling it. Then you can add your pages and links by going to Site > Navigation > Manage menu items.
Right sidebar
The right hand sidebar, by default features a table of contents so users can navigate your pages with ease. The table of contents is wrapped in a synced block so when you modify the content inside it will update throughout your site. You can also delete the column, it would not break the template layout.
Primary color
You can easily switch the primary color of the Aether template to suite your needs. To change it, head to your site settings (cog icon), into the 'Code' page and inside the 'CSS' tab, simply paste the snippet below and update the HEX color code to your liking. The primary color acts like an accent color and appears in places like code syntax.

}Call to action button
Aether has an additional feature that lets you turn a link into a call to action button, check out the example below.

To change it, head to your site settings (cog icon), into the 'Code' page and inside the 'CSS' tab, simply paste the snippet below and update the values to your liking. This will also affect the styles of the Navbar call to action button.
