I made a browser extension that automatically applies themes on websites generated with mdBook.
2 projects | reddit.com/r/rust | 30 Jan 2023

I personally had the frustration that websites generated with [mdBook](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook) always displayed me the "Navy" theme. But I prefer the "Ayu" theme, therefore I always set the theme to "Ayu". But doing things per hand is not the way we do stuff around here, so I decided to write a small browser extension that applies the themes for me.
