I have similar issues: image

It looks as though Google may have changed some class names.

@jackbuehner I have already identified some tweaks to improve this, but I'm unsure of the build workflow. I assume I should edit source.less, and generate gmail-dark.css from it - but what about gmail-dark.less.user.css? Is it also supposed to be generated somehow, or should I edit it manually?

What is your normal process?

@gavlock Here's many workflow (I should probably put this in the README):

  1. Open source.less in Visual Studio Code with the Easy LESS plugin installed.
  2. Make the changes
  3. On save, Easy LESS generates gmail-dark.css. I used to use this to update userstyles.org, but since that website is horrible now, it is mostly for Firefox users that use a userContent.css.
  4. Copy the contents of source.less to gmail-dark.less.user.css. Comment out the section that is labeled "// these variables need to be removed when installed as user.css"

I'm super excited that you are willing to contribute! I often get overwhelmed with homework/research/projects for college.

Yikes - is there a laymans version of this? sorry man, i'll definitely give this a shot but the furthest i've ever gone in any coding is a bit of linux tinkering with a server.. i'm having the same issue with the tasks menu i'll report back at the end of the day.. ok i tried, got as far as step ... 2 haha ( i have visual studio with easy LESS installed)
