My wife Chris's writing (and business) office is in a small corner of my shop building. The entrance is ingeniously disguised as a door.

Inverted Themes With “light-dark()”, by @davatron5000:

Inverted themes with light-dark()

We rolled out adaptive light-dark() support on our design system themes and it’s been a delightful upgrade. Creating light and dark variable sets isn’t difficult, but delivery has trade-offs. Most apps that do this probably ship both sets of token values in a single stylesheet. That’s fine until you have multiple kilobytes of duplicate definitions. To get around the performance problems we built two separate stylesheets –which is also not great– but my coworker Zacky found a good trick with <link disabled> to make it tolerable. Ultimately, we wanted to offer a single stylesheet for our human (and agent) friends to control theming.

@rl_dane An abacus has significant design advantages over #libadwaita so long as the theme is joined with the TK :')

By theme, I'm talking about basic things like widget sizes, basic background/foreground color selections, and disabling #ClientSideDecorations . I understand developers' frustration with full custom CSS, but missing these things is sad.
