Boost is a new core theme that gives Moodle sites a fresh new look.

Boost for teachers
Boost for admins
  • Get better navigation within and between courses in Boost
  • With Boost, you can enjoy consistent, clearer way to configure key pages such as courses and activities
  • Enjoy more space on the screen for your content in Boost
  • Boost is easy to configure using industry-standard Bootstrap presets
  • You always have the option to switch back to the familiar old interface at any time without affecting your custom themes
  • For developers, this new theme is a great new base for your own themes, with Bootstrap 4, built-in SASS compiler, automated RTL support, preset files, new templates which make it easier to customise Moodle components. Share your presets in the Moodle preset repository
    • Note: @import url(...) rules with external links are not supported and cause the SCSS compiler to silently fail. You need to copy the entire external file contents into the field.
  • (Note that Boost is Bootstrap-based and as such does not support submenus in the custom menu setting.)
  • With Boost, Moodle is also aiming towards a unified (harmonised) experience with our Moodle Mobile app
  • In Moodle 3.4 onwards, a file picker is available for uploading background images.
