Themes & shortcuts

Tome ships with three built-in themes and supports fully custom colour palettes. Keyboard shortcuts are available on every page for quick navigation.

Built-in themes

Switch between Light, Dark, and Amber from the user menu in the sidebar (desktop) or the bottom drawer (mobile). The active theme is stored per-browser in localStorage.

• Light — crisp whites with brand purple accents
• Dark — near-black backgrounds, easy on late-night reading
• Amber — warm cream and burnt orange, a parchment feel

Custom themes

In Settings, scroll to the theme section and click New custom theme. You provide 10 hex colour values that define every surface in the UI:

• Background, foreground, card
• Primary, primary foreground
• Muted, muted foreground
• Accent, border, destructive

Name your theme, mark it as dark or light (so Tailwind's dark: variants apply correctly), and save. Custom themes appear in the theme picker alongside the built-in ones.
