Themes

[jimmyxander]

Add a dark and light theme. This is a low priority but makes a big difference for UX. Being able to switch from night to day mode is very helpful on the eyes when you work at a computer all day.

I think it's important to keep it simple though and not add TONS of themes or the ability to custom theme. I'd suggest creating a day theme and a night theme that fit the branding, the style guidelines of SHOUT itself. That will always feel more polished and careful.

I agree with you.

I've been thinking about adding the option to change themes (selected by a dropdown) directly from the configuration. I've not settled 100% on the current design yet, so there's still alot of tweaks to be made.

I'm going to put up a milestone for version 1.0.0 later today, and this feature should be added.

Made this theme for myself to be used night-time and thought this would be a good place to share it.

What do you guys think?

@rikukissa I like it, thanks for sharing.

+1 for ability to change theme. I run this in public mode with multiple users so would be nice to have it stick in preferences cookie like the rest of preferences.

I think this ticket needs clarified.

We now have themes, so I guess this is for the theme selector? Which will hopefully be fixed by #454 or #386. I assume there's nothing else to this story anymore?

Yes those two tickets do what I needed and I'm guessing solve the original issue.
