• Introduction When putting down ideas or solving problems on paper we seldom use a lot of colors, so why do we need our editor to look like a christmas tree?

Mindre (which is the Swedish word for "less") tries to strike a good balance between usability and minimalism by almost being a monochrome theme but with a splash of color.

I highly recommend using [[http://jonls.dk/redshift/][Redshift]] or something similar to adjust the color temperature of your screen. Personally I have mine set to 3200K for both day and night (default is 3700K and 5500K respectively).
