# Provider and Consumer

Settings context relies on the context feature of React (opens new window) to pass the settings down to the components. Settings context exports SettingsProvider and SettingsConsumer and they must be parents of ThemeComponent in src/pages/_app.tsx file. See the following code:

<SettingsProvider>
  <SettingsConsumer>
    {({ settings }) => (
      <ThemeComponent settings={settings}>{getLayout(<Component {...pageProps} />)}</ThemeComponent>
    )}
  </SettingsConsumer>
</SettingsProvider>
