Roadmap

[uncenter]

Want to make a general issue to publicly list some plans and thoughts we/I have regarding the future of userstyles. The following list will be updated somewhat frequently as I get through the list :)

Short term

• Review backlog of init PRs: https://github.com/catppuccin/userstyles/pulls?q=is:pr+is:open+-label:%22waiting+on+author%22+draft:false+feat+init+sort:created-asc+-label:pending+.

Documentation website

• Starlight? Waiting on Starlight catppuccin#2574.

Custom GitHub bot

• Ping maintainers on issues for their userstyles.
• Request maintainer reviews for pull requests on their userstyles (replacing CODEOWNERS).
  • Don't request maintainer reviews if the pull request modifies more than, say, 5 userstyles, and/or the pull request is titled with tree-wide. Leave comment noting this, and:
    • Provide command for staff for pinging maintainers on tree-wides. (@catppuccin/userstyles-bot ping tree-wide?)
• Label pull requests (replacing other messy labeler stuff).
• Request staff reviews (individually, not whole team) for init pull requests.
• Provide command for merging pull requests, similar to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-merge-bot. (@catppucicn/userstyles-bot merge?)
  • Verify that user pinging bot is on userstyles-maintainers team.
  • Verify that pull request only modifies files for their userstyle(s).
    • Maintainers should not be able to use the bot to merge init pull requests.
  • Verifies the commit message is appropriate.
  • Verifies all checks have passed and all staff members have approved.
• Use for CI, add as exception to branch rules, avoid USERSTYLES_TOKEN and infinite loop mess.
  • Push formatting, health file, and version bump changes to pull request right before merging? Avoids extra commits by squashing with init PR commit.

Long term

• Upload to userstyles.world #1392
• ci: add script to generate dark reader ignore configuration #967
• Detecting object Object output in compiled Less (Provide error when mixin results in `[object Object]` value less/less.js#4304):

Consolidation

• Bootstrap sites: we have quite a few of these already, I believe 2+ current PRs also theme Bootstrap websites. Would like to look into creating a port for it so we can reuse the code!
• Ace Editor: Split it it's own port? I believe some? one? userstyle themes it and it might be useful by itself.
• Tailwind: TailwindCSS v4 is quickly approaching us and I think it means that sites using Tailwind that upgrade will use CSS variables! 🎉 Hopefully this will work as expected and be on by default, making our lives easier.
  • Ref: https://x.com/adamwathan/status/1842270236071858603?s=46
• Mediawiki: With the recent introduction of dark mode to Mediawiki/Wikipedia, hopefully we will see it rolling out fully on Wikipedia (refactor(wikipedia): rewrite #1075) and the other Mediawiki sites we theme (feat(wiki.nixos.org): init #1199).
• Split Prettylights variables highlighting into separate port: https://github.com/search?q=org:catppuccin+color-prettylights&type=code.
• Split Ace Editor highlighting into separate port: https://github.com/search?q=org:catppuccin+.ace_editor&type=code, feat(pythonanywhere): init #1243.

In addition to prettylights and ace editor, is TinyMCE something that should be included? Its used on a lot of websites including the Canvas LMS userstyle.

Can you link the existing styles in this repository for it?

I just see the Canvas LMS one. I thought I saw more earlier.
The current version of the theme doesn't modify any of the editor, however the proposed rewrite PR does.
The Joplin theme also has styles for it, but that's not a userstyle.
