# color-scheme-sync

A daemon that watches for changes in the new system-wide

[dark style preference](https://blogs.gnome.org/alexm/2021/10/04/dark-style-preference/) in GNOME \

mirroring your preference to the legacy `gtk-theme` preference.

## Why?

Electron [does not support](https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/33635) the new dark style preference, which means that apps such as [VSCode](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/146804) do not support it either.

This annoys me as I like switching between dark and light mode.

## Installing

* Clone this repository

* Run `cargo build --release` 

* Run `./install.sh`. \

  This will install a systemd service that waits for changes to your color scheme preference,

  automatically any changes to the legacy `gtk-theme` preference.
