Moodle Theme Herald Boost
Herald Boost is a responsive Moodle theme perfect for colleges, universities, businesses and government organisations. It’s built based on Moodle’s core theme Boost and comes with 4 preset colour schemes. You can change the primary theme colour easily via the theme settings page to meet your branding needs. This theme uses the latest Bootstrap 4 framework so you can also use Bootstrap’s various components in your course design. Configuring the theme is very easy and straightforward – just follow the instructions on the theme settings page. All of the theme related sections on the landing page can be turned on/off so you can choose the best combination for your own site.
