=> ↺ AksDark: My colorscheme for KDE Plasma
Hey all, just a simple blog post this time, I just wanted to showcase the colorscheme I have made for KDE Plasma and various text editors and such.

I have been working on this colorscheme for many months now, slowly tweaking it and figuring out what are the best colors for me.
I think I’ve finally found what works for me the best.
About the name: I am bad at naming things and I just first felt like “Okay only I use this colorscheme so I just name it AksDark lol” and well seems some people like it a lot!
Okay, yes, it’s silly to write about history of why I made a colorscheme besides “it looks cool” but hear me out, there’s an actual reason!

After I accidentally screwed up my system Friday night, I ended up with no choice but to install all system updates from KDE neon “unstable” which now defaults to a Plasma 6 session. I certainly wasn’t planning on spending a few hours that evening fixing my setup. Alas, I am now taking “eating your own dog food” to the extreme and made my daily driver laptop run Plasma 6.

Of course in the current phase of development it’s in a bit of a rough shape, a combination of packaging / co-installability woes, like some key components still stemming from a Plasma 5 build, and actual broken code suffering from changes in Qt, Frameworks, and Plasma itself. For instance, the Breeze SDDM theme already requires Qt 6 whereas SDDM is currently shipped as a Qt 5 build. The fallback theme it provides is quite broken, so it took me a while to log in again. On the other hand, Breeze temporarily isn’t provided for Qt 5 anymore, so those apps look hideous right now. Of course, this is all being worked on and will be resolved soon.
