Themes for Standard Notes, made from my desktop themes.
| Theme | |
|---|---|
| The Greatest Generation | Paper-colored text on navy, with the orange and coral of the art for The Wonder Years’ album The Greatest Generation. |
| The Greatest Generation Light | The same inks with the paper as the ground: navy text, and the orange and coral deepened to read on it. |
| Hum | White on blue-black with a slate blue accent and every other hue in the same cold blues, after the Omarchy Aether theme of the same name. |
The Greatest Generation themes are fan-made and not affiliated with The Wonder Years. They borrow the album art’s colors, none of the art itself.
Each folder holds what Standard Notes needs, served by GitHub Pages at
https://seamair729.github.io/standardnotes-themes/<folder>/:
theme.css, the stylesheet, which the web and mobile apps loadtheme.zip, which the desktop app downloads and keepsplugin.json, the manifest pointing at both, with the version the desktop app checks
for updatesStandard Notes installs a theme from its manifest’s URL: Preferences > Plugins > Install
custom plugin. It fetches the manifest with credentials, though, and GitHub Pages answers
with Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, which browsers don’t accept for such a request, so
pasting https://seamair729.github.io/standardnotes-themes/<folder>/plugin.json is likely
refused. The same plugin.json served from somewhere that names the app’s origin and
allows credentials installs fine (I serve mine from localhost). The theme itself then
still comes from here, so it works on every device the account syncs to.
