Python tool to inject a Discord theme into the Slack desktop application

Slack dark theme injector tool

This tool writes a dark theme to mimic Discord on the Slack desktop application.

Preview:

Prerequisites

Install python

You really should take the css file from this site, and host it somewhere you control. It's not a great idea to have a script inject an arbitrary CSS file from a domain outside of your control, into an application like Slack that could have sensitive data.

Don't trust me - fork the repo.

Running

Unix

sudo python makeitdark.py

sudo python3 makeitdark.py

Windows

python makeitdark.py

Sidebar

Matching Discord-themed sidebar:

#2C2F33,#252525,#4d4d4d,#D2D6D6,#4D4D4D,#DEDEDE,#ADBA4E,#DB6668

You can fiddle around with custom sidebar themes at https://slackthemes.net

Reverting

If you want to uninstall the dark Slack theme you can run with the makeitlight option:

makeitdark.py makeitlight

Slack Updates

When Slack updates it will overwrite the installed dark theme. When this happens just re-run the tool to make it dark again.
