  • If you're using a WM, you'll have to basically setup userland stuff yourself. My setup is completely automated and I can change the theme of all my applications in an instance using a single keybinding which allows me to choose one of out of hundreds of base 16 themes and then hot reloads all my applications. Obviously, this requires some research and you'll only be able to build this kind of setup making minor changes over a long time period. If you want some inspiration, you can have a look at my dotfiles.
