### Adding a logo
If your project has a logo, you can add it to the drawer/navigation by defining
the variable `extra.logo`. Ideally, the image of your logo should have
rectangular shape with a minimum resolution of 128x128. The logo will also be
used as a web application icon on iOS. Simply create the folder `docs/images`,

### Changing the font family
Material uses the [Ubuntu font family][] by default, specifically the regular
sans-serif type for text and the monospaced type for code. Both fonts are
loaded from [Google Fonts][] and can be easily changed to other fonts, like for
example Google's own [Roboto font][]:
``` yaml
extra:
font:
text: 'Roboto'
code: 'Roboto Mono'
```
The text font will be loaded in font-weights 400 and 700, the monospaced font
in regular weight. If you want to load fonts from other destinations or don't
want to use the Google Fonts loading magic, just set `extra.font` to `'none'`:

font: 'none'
