Description

Just a bit of friendly feedback, I find the admonition use in the book a bit challenging to read.
I've heard the idea of 'admonition fatigue' passed around, to me an admonish reads a bit like SHOUTING. WHEN EVERYTHING IS CAPITAL LETTERS IT GETS NOISY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE CONTENT IS VERY LONG OR JUST A LINK OR SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE EMPHASIS (im not actually shouting here 🙃)

Love the idea of spicing mdbook up with color, it has great theming support, could be a oneshot prompt to replace the admonishments with something more legible but equally pretty.

Just my personal experience, thanks for the awesome library!

Start by reviewing the book's current admonition usage and the mdBook theme documentation linked in the issue. Determine which long, link-only, or low-emphasis admonitions need different treatment; done means the book remains colorful and legible without making routine content feel like shouting.
