Expand the catalog from 11 themes (10 dark, 1 light) to 37 (24/13):
all 18 remaining Omarchy defaults (palettes from each theme's
colors.toml) plus 8 canonical light themes (Tokyo Night Day, Solarized
Light, One Light, Ayu Light, GitHub Light, Gruvbox Light, Everforest
Light, Kanagawa Lotus). Lupine leads the light list as the default
light theme; the app default stays tokyo-night.
Appearance panel: Dark/Light segmented filter (SSR-initialized from the
user's current theme), scrollable theme list, Bookshelf section pinned;
active row revealed on open. Light themes carry color-scheme: light and
the soft-shadow token set. Public-page theme selects get Dark/Light
optgroups. New moon/sun icons.
tailwind.config: safelist the new theme ids — Tailwind v3 purges custom
@layer base class selectors that appear in no scanned content file, so
an unsafelisted id silently ships without its CSS (found the hard way).
theme.ts: applyTheme now swaps only theme-* classes (changing theme
from the login select no longer wipes min-h-screen) and keeps the class
in sync on <html> for the new ThemeFlashGuard — a pre-paint inline
script on the four public pages that applies the saved theme before
first paint.
Kanagawa's UI accent uses crystalBlue (#7e9cd8) instead of Omarchy's
foreground-as-accent so links stay distinguishable from text.
Add semantic design tokens and base primitives to replace the verbose
inline var() styling that made the UI feel dated.
- Rename colliding Tailwind color tokens (bg-primary/bg-secondary) to
semantic names (surface/surface-raised/content/content-muted/brand/line)
- Derive hover, overlay, border-strong, accent-muted and elevation tokens
once on <body> so they adapt to every theme automatically
- Make :root mirror Tokyo Night to kill the first-paint theme flash
- Add component primitives in @layer components: .card (surface + soft
shadow, no hard border), .btn variants, .input, .chip, .badge, .icon-btn
- Add theme-aware status/priority badges and global focus-visible styling
- Add an inline-SVG Icon() component (consistent stroke language) to
replace the mixed emoji/SVG iconography
- Data-drive theme/wood options and add an active-nav helper
- Add skeleton shimmer + x-cloak support
