Dark mode for editor and app

[chrda81]

Maybe this helps and can be included somehow. I played around with some styling ops and created this stylesheet for bringing dark mode to my editor and app. It's not perfect and misses some styling ops, but maybe it's a start:

content of static/theme.css:

/* Light mode */
/*
.ComponentRenderer {
  --accentColor: #29cf00;
  --buttonColor: #ffffff;
  --emptinessColor: #e9eef1;
  --separatorColor: rgba(0, 0, 0, .07);
  --primaryTextColor: #202829;
  --buttonTextColor: #202829;
  --secondaryTextColor: #5d7275;
  --containerBackgroundColor: #ffffff;
}
*/

/* Dark mode */
@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {

  .ComponentRenderer {
    --accentColor: #0094d1 !important;
    --buttonColor: #0094d1 !important;
    --emptinessColor: #1e1e1e !important;
    --separatorColor: rgba(255, 255, 255, .05) !important;
    --primaryTextColor: #f0f0f0 !important;
    --buttonTextColor: #f0f0f0 !important;
    --secondaryTextColor: #c0c0c0 !important;
    --containerBackgroundColor: #353535 !important;
    --buttonShadow: 3px 2px 2px 1px #1e1e1e !important;
    --containerShadow: 3px 2px 2px 1px #1e1e1e !important;
  }

  .BuilderApp {
    --builderBackgroundColor: #353535 !important;
    --builderAccentColor: #29cf00 !important;
    --builderSuccessColor: #29cf00 !important;
    --builderErrorColor: #ff3d00 !important;
    --builderHeaderBackgroundColor: #353535 !important;
    --builderHeaderBackgroundHoleColor: #202020 !important;
    --builderPrimaryTextColor: #f0f0f0 !important;
    --builderSecondaryTextColor: #c0c0c0 !important;
    --builderAreaSeparatorColor: rgba(0, 0, 0, .2) !important;
    --builderSeparatorColor: rgba(0, 0, 0, .1) !important;
    --builderSubtleSeparatorColor: rgba(255, 255, 255, .05) !important;
    --builderIntenseSeparatorColor: rgba(0, 0, 0, .2) !important;
    --builderSelectedColor: rgba(159, 169, 174, 0.8) !important;
    --builderMatchingColor: #f8dccc !important;
    --builderIntenseSelectedColor: #0094d1 !important;
    --builderSubtleHighlightColor: rgba(255, 255, 255, .05) !important;
    --builderSubtleHighlightColorSolid: #2b2b2b !important;
    --builderDisabledColor: rgb(180, 180, 180) !important;
    --builderSidebarWidth: max(265px, 27vh) !important;
    --builderSettingsWidth: max(265px, 27vh) !important;
    --builderActionOngoingColor: rgba(0, 0, 0, .7) !important;
    --builderTopBarHeight: 48px !important;
    --builderWarningTextColor: white !important;
    --builderWarningColor: #ff3d00 !important;
    background: #1e1e1e !important;
    border: 1px solid var(--builderHeaderBackgroundHoleColor) !important;
    color: var(--builderPrimaryTextColor) !important;
  }

  .BuilderTreeBranch>.main,
  .BuilderTreeBranch>.main>.type {
    color: var(--builderPrimaryTextColor) !important;
  }

  .BuilderFieldsColor,
  .BuilderFieldsShadow,
  .BuilderFieldsText>.content {
    border: 1px solid var(--builderHeaderBackgroundHoleColor) !important;
  }

  .BuilderSettingsHandlers .fieldWrapperMain>span {
    top: -10px !important;
  }
}

I then included this .css file at the bottom into my main.py:

# initial_state.import_stylesheet(
#     "reset-css", "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/reset.min.css"
# )
initial_state.import_stylesheet("theme", "/static/theme.css")

_update_message(initial_state)

It seems that some of the BuilderApp color styles are wrong assigned. With my above style.css some button styles are broken:

I think it is not the best case to set the button text color by the defined background color.

Thanks for the contribution, that CSS might come in handy. We don't plan to work on this feature soon, it'll be challenging to implement this in a reliable way and we have other priorities at the moment, so I'm closing this ticket.
