For #ONI the no fuss single user #ActivityPub service, I wanted to migrate from my custom hodge-podge of JavaScript logic for building CSS themes from images, to something a little more credentialed and battle tested.

Then I looked over what the Material library would generate and I begun to reconsider.

Material is so unsipired, it defaults to such samey, generic norm-core color palettes that it's difficult to see any changes even between vastly different images.

I think I'll just improve my own algorithm because, frankly, I want more GeoCities and less Enterprise.

@mariusor I really like the micro theme standard that @neauoire made for their family of apps https://github.com/hundredrabbits/Themes thou it might be too simple for your needs. I think Fedilab also supports some sort of sharable theme system maybe it could be reused

@liaizon thanx, I think looking through pywall code - which they seem to use for actually generating the colours - might be something close to what I want.
