How to change color of GUI components

Question

I am trying following demo code of fyne:

package main
import (
    "fyne.io/fyne/app"
    "fyne.io/fyne/widget"
)
func main() {
    a := app.New()
    w := a.NewWindow("Hello")
    w.SetContent(
        widget.NewVBox(
            widget.NewLabel("Hello Fyne!"),
            widget.NewButton("Quit", func(){a.Quit()} ),
        ),
    )
    w.ShowAndRun()
}

It runs all right but I want to change color of label to blue and that of button to green. I see there is theme but that seems to be for entire application and not for individual elements.

How can different colors be applied to different GUI components? Thanks for your help.

As the standard widgets in Fyne do not support customisation there is no short answer to this (other than we don't advise it).

If you have to do this, for some valid reason that your users require, then you should look at our developer documentation which has a brief introduction to writing custom widgets. However we aim to make this process easier in release 1.2 later this year.

Just to re-iterate comments above the Fyne toolkit is aiming to create a consistent user experience that is simple and fast to program. Every time you create a custom widget so that you can have custom colours or styles you may be confusing your user and you will be making it much harder to maintain the code.
