Theme Settings
Customize Alma's color themes for dark and light modes.
How Themes Work
Alma uses the Base46 theming system, which provides consistent color schemes across the application. You can select different themes for dark mode and light mode independently.
The theme follows your system's light/dark preference (configured in UI Settings), and Alma automatically applies the appropriate theme.
