Light and Dark Mode

The theme automatically adapts to light and dark mode. You can explicitly set the mode:

// Light mode
let light_theme = Modern::light_theme();

// Dark mode
let dark_theme = Modern::dark_theme();

Available Colors

The theme includes all standard Modern system colors:

  • Primary Colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Mint, Teal, Cyan, Blue, Indigo, Purple, Pink, Brown
  • Gray Scale: Multiple levels of gray for UI elements
  • Semantic Colors: For text, backgrounds, borders, etc.

Each color has appropriate light and dark mode variants that are automatically selected based on the current theme.

Custom Components

You can create custom components using the Modern styling functions:

// Custom button style
let my_custom_button = button(row![icon, text("Custom Button")])
    .style(Modern::primary_button())
    .padding(8);

// Custom container
let my_custom_panel = container(content)
    .style(Modern::card_container())
    .padding(15)
    .width(Length::Fill);
