Gitea-Modern/readme.md

Pausing Development (for now)

Honestly I don't really have much to say, it's mostly just been a lack of motivation. Especially since Atom sunsetted, which I was using for the compilation of files. I'll need to figure out a way of easily compiling them again. I might come back to this in the future or sooner. But if I were to continue this, I would rather it be contributing to Gitea itself, than having it be a big pile of messy CSS code added on top of what's already there.

Gitea Modern

Changes the layout of Gitea to give it a more modern look. Can be used with any other themes that change only colors!

Note: The Stylus browser extension and Stylus preprocessor are two different things.

Usage as a Gitea theme, or use Stylus to apply to any instance

To install the theme for all Gitea users:

0. Make sure you're on the latest version of Gitea!
1. Download the theme-gitea-modern.css file and add it to your custom folder in $GITEA_CUSTOM/public/css/ (learn how to find that directory).

• The path has changed in Gitea 1.15, there the file needs to be placed in $GITEA_CUSTOM/public/assets/css
• Gitea 1.16 uses the old path at $GITEA_CUSTOM/public/css/

2. Adapt your app.ini to make it the default theme or be user-selectable:

   • To change the default theme, change the value of DEFAULT_THEME in the ui section of app.ini to gitea-modern

   • To make a theme selectable by users in their profile settings, append ,gitea-modern to the list of THEMES in your app.ini.

3. Restart Gitea
4. Enjoy :)

Contributing

To make changes, always base them on theme-gitea-modern.styl, which requires the Stylus preprocessor. When making contributions, don't use the compiled version for your changes.
