Can you contribute? The manager css is not theme-aware: https://github.com/jobisoft/TbSync/blob/master/content/manager/manager.css
If you contribute: TbSync exists in two editions at the moment. The current released one, which is actually the old one in branch 0.7.16.9-(last-TbSync-with-EAS) and the new editon (without bundled EAS) which is not yet released. The switch-over will happen in 1 or 2 weeks.
Looks like I found some information about this situation. I will try when will I've got some free time https://www.sitepoint.com/css-system-styles/
I just took a look into it, but didn't manage to apply styles from thunderbird. Only from my OS
I do not know how the theming system in thunderbird works, but maybe if you would build the UI with thunderbird components it should "just work" - thunderbird, minus the calendar, works pretty well with the dark theme in Ubuntu for example


There is a dupe of this somewhere.
