🖤 Kuro 9 🤍

Kuro

Warning ⚠️

It is highly recommended you delete your ~/.kuro.json configuration file in order to have the new keyboard shortcuts and the default theme.

Summary

Kuro 9 fundamentally changes the way one of Kuro's most important feature works:

Recently, Microsoft finally released the dark theme implementation for the web version of their ToDo app, they call it Night Mode. This was one of the main reasons I decided to start working on Kuro over a year ago. There was no Desktop client for MS ToDo and the web app lacked a dark mode.

Instead of coming pre-packed the 4 themes (Dark, Black, Dracula & Sepia), Kuro will now use its repurposed Ctrl + H shortcut to toggle between Microsoft ToDo's Night Mode.

And starting with Kuro 9, you'll be able to create and use your own themes with Kuro ! There are a few already in the Wiki page in case you want to gain some inspiration and you can use the shortcut Ctrl + S to enable Custom Mode. Note that doing so will override any styled applied by Night Mode.

By extension, the Auto-Night Mode will remove custom mode when Kuro is initialized and apply ToDo's Night/Day Mode according to the time of day.
