ThemeManager planned improvements, feedback wanted

[digitaldirk]

Hi,

I would like to become a main contributor/maintainer for this project.

Contribution Ideas:

1. Update demo project (maybe add to mublazor docs)
2. Add more options (upcoming skeleton color for example: MudSkeleton: add dark mode support MudBlazor#9815)
3. Add presets (Default, pastel, neon,...)
4. Ability to load custom fonts
5. Exporting/importing themes (See Save theme #3)
6. Improve readme
7. Performance/stability
8. Diagnostics (warnings for accessibility and contrast for example)
9. Add tests
10. Make things more compact overall (dense/margin) to be able to show as many things as possible on demo page.

Would like to discuss these further here with the community.

I would like to become a main contributor/maintainer for this project. @ScarletKuro @henon

I think @henon would need your discord to discuss this.

As for the features. I think it's more to @Garderoben since he wrote 99% of the code, I'm just life supporting it.
I can only say that the most requested feature was to import/export the theme settings.

Here is a rough idea of having the drawer come up from the bottom instead.

Exporting/Uploading a json file is working, but still have some issues to work out. For exporting I would like to have multiple options.

What exports would you want?

• .json file?
• Copy/pasteable C# code?
• .cs file?
• Export just the colors as rgb/hex?

I will be away for 1-2 weeks so no coding progress will be made, but I will be sure to respond to any feedback.

I would say you only need the json and copy/pastable C# code for the MudTheme for your project. Not sure about other formats

Not sure if you'd like to add another item to the list? SSR support as it currently only works with CSR.

It would be nice if all the configurable colors, elevations, texts etc would be on a sample page and were manageable by the thememanager. For me the thememanager on the side would be best, since I have a 40" monitor (wide), but perhaps you can make that configurable as well.

Really good work, looking froward to next release.
I would really like support for SSR as we could potetially use the theme manager in a lot of our projects.

Really good work, looking forward to next release. I would really like support for SSR as we could potentially use the theme manager in a lot of our projects.

Except for dynamic dark/light mode I think ThemeManager works in SSR?

Any update?

Hi all,

Thank you for all of your comments and suggestions. I am sorry for the big delay on this topic. I have recently made good progress and will have this code as a PR as soon as its ready. The changes I made need a lot of polish and some features still need to be implemented.

Demo:
