+title: Customization options
+description: Customize Bootstrap 4 with our built-in custom variables file and easily toggle global CSS preferences with new Sass variables.
+group: getting-started
+toc: true
+---
+
+## Customizing variables
+
+Bootstrap 4 ships with a `_custom.scss` file for easy overriding of default variables in `/scss/_variables.scss`. Copy and paste relevant lines from there into the `_custom.scss` file, modify the values, and recompile your Sass to change our default values. **Be sure to remove the `!default` flag from override values.**
+
+For example, to change out the `background-color` and `color` for the `<body>`, you'd do the following:
+
+{% highlight scss %}
+// Bootstrap overrides
+//
+// Copy variables from `_variables.scss` to this file to override default values
+// without modifying source files.
+
+$body-bg: $gray-dark;
+$body-color: $gray-light;
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Do the same for any variable you need to override, including the global options listed below.
+
+## Global options
+
+Customize Bootstrap 4 with our built-in custom variables file and easily toggle global CSS preferences with new `$enable-*` Sass variables. Override a variable's value and recompile with `npm run test` as needed.
+
+You can find and customize these variables for key global options in our `_variables.scss` file.
+
+| Variable | Values | Description |
+| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `$spacer` | `1rem` (default), or any value > 0 | Specifies the default spacer value to programmatically generate our [spacer utilities](/utilities/spacing/). |

+| `$enable-transitions` | `true` (default) or `false` | Enables predefined `transition`s on various components. |

+| `$enable-print-styles` | `true` (default) or `false` | Enables styles for optimizing printing. |
