Instructions for Installation

Option #1:

Copy the CSS from here! and paste it into your roam/css page.

This works by linking to an outside .css file, actually located here to handle all the styling, as it keeps the roam/css page much cleaner/faster.

If you do in fact want to manipulate the code, just navigate to the source .css file manually, copy it, and paste it all into your roam/css page.

Alternatively, to further customize, you can actually just add your own rules below the :root {}, and it will supercede everything before it if it is targeted with appropriate specificity/importance.

How to setup your roam/css page:

Applying custom themes in Roam Research

Option #2:

Another method is using the Stylus Chrome Extension to override the page css. If you are using that method, copy the CSS from here and paste it into Stylus, and set it up to apply to Roam Research urls.

Variables for Customization

Both options allow for customizing colors by changing the color values included at the top of the file. I did my best to comment everything with what exactly it will shift.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions/suggestions/requests!

Thanks!
