# style

The `style` step type applies the Atmos terminal styling engine — colors, borders, padding, and text decoration — to any text, so your custom commands and workflows can highlight the output that matters.

```yaml
steps:
  - name: heading
    type: style
    content: Production deploy
    foreground: "#ffcc00"
    bold: true
    border: rounded
    padding: "1 2"
```

## Fields

- **`content`**
  Required. Text to style. Supports templates.
- **`foreground` / `background`**
  Optional text and background colors.
- **`border`**
  Optional border style such as 
  `normal`
  ,

  Optional spacing values.
