custom themes

[chmontgomery]

I'm looking for help with custom themes on the gulp4 branch. With this new re-write of gulp-help, almost everything is customizable through options. See here for all the possible options.

As you can see, options.styles takes a map of style functions. By default these are all chalk functions but could really be anything that modifies a string.

I'm looking for people to come up with some different themes (dark, light, etc) to accommodate different terminals. The default looks good with my black background, but I'm sure there are many other variations people could think of. PRs would be helpful.

Thanks.

Hi @chmontgomery, where would we add these themes once we've come up with them? By that I mean, where should we be inserting them with a PR?

[chmontgomery]

@Charlotteis good question. I just created a themes folder that you can add to

Have some more people wanting to do some themes, so I thought I'd show them that this: #33 is an example of how to do it, thanks to armin :)

Heads up, I believe there is a typo in the themes readme.

require('gulp/themes/lemonade')

Shouldn't this be?:

require('gulp-help/themes/lemonade')

@levithomason thanks for finding this! the readme has been updated.
