An Omarchy theme inspired by the Solaris 9 Common Desktop Environment (CDE). Calibrated pixel-by-pixel against real CDE desktop screenshots: the signature grey-lavender chrome, warm cream text canvas, and rose active/selection accent.
This is the light variant. See Solstice Nightwatch for the dark companion.

- Hyprland — rose active border (
#B24D7A), grey-lavender inactive border. - GTK 3 / GTK 4 — chrome + rose selection overrides; sharp CDE corners
(
border-radius: 0). GTK loads user CSS once at startup, so restart GTK apps after switching into or out of this theme for colors to take. - Terminal — Ghostty / Alacritty / Kitty / foot palettes generated from
colors.toml. - Browser chrome —
chromium.themesets the frame tint; apply withomarchy theme set browser(the policy write needs sudo). For full toolbar/tab colors, enable Use GTK in the browser's appearance settings — Chromium picks up this theme's GTK CSS. - Neovim — self-contained
neovim.luacolorscheme (no plugin dependency). - btop, Zed/VS Code, Helix — generated from
colors.toml.
