Carbon

A minimal and opinionated theme with light and dark schemes for Obsidian. This theme is based largely, but not entirely, on the IBM Carbon design specifications from which it gets its name.

NB This theme is in beta. Please open an issue on Github if you have problems, or send an e-mail to [email protected] or @[email protected] on Mastodon.

Tips

1. Please turn off Settings → Appearance → Translucent window while using this theme.
2. In the screenshots, Settings → Appearance → Interface → Show inline title has been turned off.
3. The recommended accent colour is #0F62FE – specify this in Settings → Appearance → Accent color.
4. If you plan to clone this repo into your /.obsidian/themes folder, please rename it to Carbon for it to show up inside Obsidian.
5. For best results, quit and reopen Obsidian after applying as well as updating this theme.
