Nota Limonada Light

A light-only Obsidian theme built on limonada-ds — CrisHood's design system ("Verde de Basílica"): a warm paper base, forest-green primary, and a thin gold accent reserved for quiet, devotional detail. No dark mode: the system's own rule is that light always predominates, so switching to Obsidian's dark base falls back to its stock dark theme rather than a styled one.

What v2 brings

  • Typography — Libre Franklin for headings, Libre Baskerville for reading, and Fira Mono for technical detail. All three are self-hosted, embedded directly in theme.css as base64 — Obsidian's Developer policies forbid a theme loading remote assets, so nothing is fetched over the network.
  • Color — the full "Verde de Basílica" palette mapped onto Obsidian's own CSS variables: paper/ink, the five structural colors, liturgical alert colors for callouts (success, warning, error, info).
  • Layout details — square corners throughout, callouts and code blocks distinguished by fill rather than a frame, tables with a plain hairline border (Obsidian's table renderer doesn't support the gap-drawn grid the rest of the system uses elsewhere), and a blockquote treatment that swaps voice on purpose: Baskerville Italic with a thin gold rule, reading voice rather than brand voice.
  • Style Settings support — reading font size, line width, an optional film-grain texture, and an optional hairline grid backdrop, all off/default until you turn them on.

Local development

git clone [email protected]:crishood/nota-limonada-light.git "<vault>/.obsidian/themes/Nota Limonada Light"
cd "<vault>/.obsidian/themes/Nota Limonada Light"
node build.mjs   # regenerates theme.css from src/*.css + fonts/

Edit files under src/, never theme.css directly — it's a generated file (kept committed so Obsidian can read it straight from a release, but the source of truth lives in src/).
