Eleven themes,
one restrained TUI.

dotstate ships with eleven built-in themes that cover most terminal tastes — from soft light to deep dark, and the familiar community palettes. Pick one in Settings → Theme, or set it in your config.

Set a theme

In ~/.config/dotstate/config.toml:

theme = "tokyonight-dark"

Or change it from the TUI: press , to open settings, then select a theme — changes apply instantly.

Accessibility

The nocolor theme strips all color — useful on monochrome terminals, in screenshots for documentation, or when working in a color-critical environment where the TUI's palette would interfere.
