Elmer for Mastodon

Named after Elmer the Patchwork Elephant.

Elmer is a custom theme for Mastodon 4.6+ that leverages the Mastodon design system to easily achieve a colorful look based on only one or two base accent colors.

Inspirations

Based on Cassidy’s CSS tweaks for mastodon.blaede.family, which itself was inspired by @nileane's TangerineUI.

Installation and disclaimer

Extremely early, therefore the installation steps are "if you know how to apply this, go ahead" until this thing stabilizes more.

Thanks to @cassidyjames for the basis of the CSS and @nileane for additional color tweaks.
