jupyterlab-themes

The structure for this repo is forked from arbennett/jupyterlab-themes. I've collected and modified four themes from various places, two light: mandarin-light (custom) and mexico-light (base-16), and two dark: frantic-contrast (rainglow), and rouge-dark (rainglow).

Installation

Each theme exists as a separate npm package that can be installed via npm with the standard way of installing lab extensions:

jupyter labextension install @atisor73/{$themename}

You can also install from source by running the following comands in a theme's respective subdirectory:

npm install
jupyter labextension link .

Process (note-to-self)

Creating a new theme:

• copy the following from an existing theme:

  • pacakage.json
  • src/
  • style/
  • tsconfig.json
  • webpack.config.js
  • yarn.lock

• change package.json fields: name, version, typescript version (last functioning 3.9.2)

• change src/index.ts plugin id, style constant variable filepath, and registered name

• make sure tsconfig.json has "exclude": ["node_modules"], and "compilerOptions": {"skipLibCheck": true}

• edit style/variables.css

Viewing the theme:

• Development install:

$ cd {theme-name-dir}/
$ npm install 
$ jupyter labextension link .

• Rebuild package and JupyterLab:

$ npm run build
$ jupyter lab build

Editing themes:

• change style/variables.css

Publishing themes:
