Hey everyone,

About a year ago I embarked on creating a color scheme for a project and I loved it so much I began using it for everything. I decided to make an official repo for it to share with the world.

Anyhoo, hope y'all enjoy it.

This is exactly why I read HN! So cool. And a fellow Svelte lover. 10/10.

Good luck with the social network! It’s brutal out there..

PS — would be so cool to see a tailwind plugin of this (which in v4 should be just copying the vars in.. I didn’t look at the repo super closely). Great shit!

Thank you! We need more Svelte lovers against the tyranny of React.

RE: social network, I'm also gonna charge money to use it so I'm not yet another free option with a dubious future...an extremely tiny portion of people would pay for a social network so I'm hoping I can add enough features to make it feel worth it. So yeah, it's gonna be tough af out here LOL!

I've never used Tailwind because CSS-in-JS weirds me out. I looked at the docs and it seems like I just wrap my custom colors in `@theme.css`? Is there anything else I'd have to do? https://tailwindcss.com/docs/theme

That’s so funny — my social network[1] was paid, too! People hated that shit but — this was when Twitter had just started dying. Maybe there’s more appetite for sustainable alternatives now. I certainly see lots of projects in process on TikTok.

“The tyranny of react” is spot on. React single-handedly killed my passion for web development, but Svelte brought me back.

Good luck!

I like PocketRides, you've given me some ideas on how to incentivize creators. We certainly have the same ethos; people over bots.
