Probably using the special <Image /> tag on NextJS which they charge a premium for. NextJs claims to be a static site generator too but doesnt allow optimised images at build time for static sites.
I used to love dark themes, especially Dracula, but then astigmatism did its terrible deed.
Without glasses not only it is hard to read, but becomes tiring after a while. My last prescription gave me an additional 6 months of dark mode, but that was it.
There was this stupid moment in history when every site suddenly went full dark mode because the iPhone finally got an OLED panel, accessibility be damned.
Yep. The term for this is 'dayblind'. My sister has a friend whose light sensitivity is so severe that she can't even look up at night when there's a full moon over clear skies.
I don't know if she has any sunglasses with prescription tint, but she does often wear multiple pairs of sunglasses at once (stacking fitovers of various sizes). She also wears sunglasses whenever she uses the computer.
I forget what condition my sister's friend has, but she's legally blind. Extreme light sensitivity is often a feature of retinal diseases that also cause other visual acuity problems.
This is theme I use for everything worth custom-theming. LibreWolf, Emacs, Alacritty, AwesomeWM, Slack... and even more that don't come to mind right now.
Same! The page listing all of the applications has also introduced me to new terminal emulators and other things. It's great to have something consistent I don't need to fiddle with across all my systems.
I was this way, coming from 1970s computing origins and DEC VT terminals[1], but the Solaris console and OpenWindows[2], and NeXTSTEP[3] and macOS eventually beat me into tolerating "light mode" terminal windows.
Still do dark mode terminals after sunset, though. And Dracula is among my favorite themes.
Here's what we've been up to and what's next for this project...
Even though I pushed the first commit to Dracula, I'm not the only one responsible for its success.
Over the years, more than 734 contributors have created themes for all sorts of apps.
Dracula is everywhere now, from code editors to music apps, from terminals to websites.
Now, we're launching a new website designed and developed by the super-talented Lucas de França.
With an ever-growing selection of apps supported, we needed a better way to showcase all the themes.
The new homepage brings an App Store look-and-feel with a focus on discoverability.
Dracula PRO is also getting a fresh look, including a new surprise theme (more coming soon).
The new newsletter form is powered by Resend using the private beta for Contacts API.
A lot has happened in the last ten years, but there's a lot we still want to do.
We're on a quest to create the best cross-platform theme in the world.
We want to transform the industry and provide a consistent experience across all applications.
We believe that every single app should have a Dracula theme installed, and the best part is that you can help us make it happen.
Thank you for creating themes, for sharing them with your friends, for writing about them, for contributing to them, for being part of this journey.
We're so grateful for all the support we've received over the years.
