Accent colors provide a way for users to personalize their desktop in a simple, developer-friendly, and effective way. Throughout the community there has been a general interest in the inclusion of accent colors within apps and desktop environments. This proposal aims to standardize an accent color key on the Settings portal.
A new key on the Settings portal,
accent-color, would be defined under theorg.freedesktop.appearancenamespace.
And endorsed by #GNOME, #KDE, #CosmicDE, #ElementaryOS, and #Budgie, at that!
So now we are going to get an ‘accent-color’ pref in flatpaks or flatpaks finally will follow color-schemes?
A setting was added that all applications can read and soon desktops which have color schemes will set it.
Oh, thanks! Will gnome apps follow this as well?
Eventually. I don’t think libadwaita supports accents yet.
