Interesting, but a bit light on the terminal support. I&#x27;ve been using <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;terminal.sexy&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;terminal.sexy&#x2F;</a> which supports way more terminals. Notably, for me, Guake, XFCE Terminal, and for when I&#x27;m on Windows, PuTTY.<p>I was expecting to find this within the `themer-terminal` repo, but instead it&#x27;s just some mac thing.

A while back I posted about the GUI version (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=15087244" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=15087244</a>) but I’m realizing the CLI tool is probably more appropriate for the HN crowd.<p>Themer is a set of npm packages that allow for generating custom, matching themes for many of your development tools (editors, terminal emulators, desktop&#x2F;device wallpaper, Slack sidebar, Chrome theme, Alfred, etc.). A custom color palette can be used, or there are a number of pre-built palettes to choose from.

Nice work!<p>From my classification this seems similar to base16 <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;chriskempson&#x2F;base16" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;chriskempson&#x2F;base16</a><p>Is this correct and would you like to clarify the benefits of using themer instead of base16? Have you considered intercompatibility by i.e. allow conversion from and to base16 themes?

Here&#x27;s a suggestion: generate the wallpapers with <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;qrohlf.com&#x2F;trianglify&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;qrohlf.com&#x2F;trianglify&#x2F;</a> - I&#x27;ve taken to using wallpapers created with it (around 50 altogether now), and like the semi-random geometric patterns.

One of the reasons I run Solarized Dark theme as my default. Instead of requiring a themer tool to support all the tools I use, I have a theme that is always one of the first themes to be available for my tools. Google mytool+Solarized never let me down.

Haven&#x27;t been able to access the site: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;themer.mjswensen.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;themer.mjswensen.com&#x2F;</a> for the past hour or so...

This seems to only allow you to create Sublime color schemes, it doesn&#x27;t create a sublime theme. Sublime Theme is to style the whole window outside of the editor.

Neat, I probably waste too much time trying to make everything go together which is why I tend to stick to popular themes but this seems very useful.
