Using a custom Jupyter Lab theme / extension
I would like to use a custom theme in my Jupyter Lab Desktop app. For Jupyter Lab in the browser, I install this extension: https://github.com/dunovank/jupyterlab_legos_ui
Is there a way to use this theme with the desktop app too?

You install the theme with the pip command.
Then on the menu bar, click Settings -> Theme , then you would be able to see the theme that you installed.
Click the theme then the jupyterlab will be loaded with the theme that you reuqested.
If you cannot see the theme on jupyterlab even after you have installed, it would be a good idea to reboot your computer
@hellojinwoo That did not work for the desktop app though. A reboot has no effect.
@clstaudt The method that I told you in the comment above worked perfectly fine with me.
@hellojinwoo Interesting. Then we would need to find out where our setup differs.
Mine didn't work either. The newly installed theme is available in jupyterlab but not in the standalone app. Any solution yet?
