StudIP-nord

Custom CSS for Stud.IP from University of Bremen, following the Nord palette.

Information

This stylesheet was developed and tested with Firefox, as that browser has excellent support for injecting your own CSS via userContent.css.

It has also been reported to work on Chrome and Chromium. (This list might be expanded in future).

This stylesheet will not alter the colours of your timetable entries, as most (myself included) use a colour-coded system to easily and quickly distinguish between lectures and suchlike.

Installation

Firefox

1. If you haven't already, navigate to about:config and set
   toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true.
   

2. Open about:profiles and open the root directory of the currently active
   profile. Create a chrome folder in there.

3. Create the file userContent.css inside the newly created folder and copy
   the contents of the studip_nord.css file into it.
   

4. Save and restart Firefox.

Google Chrome / Chromium

No Native Solution

Google Chrome / Chromium does not support user styles like Firefox does. This is deliberate.

Further this breaks accessibility standards and the CSS specification, but we all know how much Google actually cares about their users : )

However, there is a workaround:

1. Install the Stylus extension.

2. Manage the stylus extension
   (click the puzzle thingy next to the search bar, select Stylus and click Manage in its menu.)

3. Click Write New Style on the left side-panel.

4. Click Import, paste the contents of the studip_nord.css file into it, and select Overwrite Style.

5. Save and restart Chrome.

Contributing

If you would like to report other working browsers, add a new section Browsername under Installation. If applicable, describe the modifications necessary to make it work, or submit a patch file for users to apply.

Submitting Code

The commit header is mandatory and should summarize the change. "Update README" is not an acceptable header, nor is "magic". Please try to keep it below 50 characters.

If 50 characters are not enough and you want to add more detail, add a commit body, like so:

(commit header)
<blank line>
(Commit body)

Secondly, your change should be useful: though fixing typos is appreciated, if that's the sole content of your PR I'm going to reject it and push the change myself. However, if you do touch up some code and in parellel fix a few adjacent typos, go ahead.

If your change is purely code, please try to stick to the current format present in the CSS file. If your IDE of choice does something weird to the code, like automatically formatting, or changing tabs, tabs width, or anything like that, fix your IDE, not the code.

Lastly, and this is the most important requirement: You must be willing to waive any and all copyright on your submission. This """project""" is released into the public domain, and thus all contributions are released into the same as well.
