+The style module defines constants for spacing and sizing, as well as classes for 
+Colors and Fonts. Text rendering is handled by Pango and colors are inputted by their
+HTML code (e.g. #FFFFFFFF)
+
 All the constants are expressed in pixels. They are defined for the XO screen
 and are usually adapted to different resolution by applying a zoom factor.
