Nuxt + Vuetify. How to apply theme colors

Question

I am using a Nuxt.js + Vuetify.js project

Looking at the file assets/style/app.styl we have

// Import and define Vuetify color theme
// https://vuetifyjs.com/en/style/colors
@require '~vuetify/src/stylus/settings/_colors'
$theme := {
  primary:     $blue.darken-2
  accent:      $blue.accent-2
  secondary:   $grey.lighten-1
  info:        $blue.lighten-1
  warning:     $amber.darken-2
  error:       $red.accent-4
  success:     $green.lighten-2
}

// Import Vuetify styling
@require '~vuetify/src/stylus/main'

.page
  @extend .fade-transition

The problem is, changing these theme colors does not result in any changes.

Any ideas how to solve this?

Docs not telling how to change color properly...

first of all you need to set your current theme and then config it. I've waste 4 hours to figure this out. You need to change you config accordingly:

vuetify: {
        theme: {
            light: true,  //you don't actually need this line as it's for default
            themes: {
                light: {
                    primary: '#b71c1c',
                    ...
                }
            }
        }
    },

While working on this problem I figured out that you also can freely add your colors like this:

vuetify: {
        theme: {
            themes: {
                light: {
                    'custom-color-one': '#b71c1c',
                    'custom-color-two': '#3B8070',
                    ...
                }
            }
        }
    },

and then in your HTML:

<div class='custom-color-one'>
  I'am div with custom background color!
</div>

<div class='custom-color-one--text'>
  I'am div with custom text color!
</div>
