Tinted Theming: all your themes, everywhere. 
Style systems and smart build tooling for crafting high fidelity color schemes and easily using them in all your favorite apps. Originally based on the amazing work of Chris Kempson and his Base16 system.
Features
- Seamless builder support for multiple style systems (Base16, Base24, etc.)
- Over 230 beautiful and ready-to-use color schemes. View the Gallery.
- Over 70 supported GUI and terminal applications. See the full list.
- Allows end users to choose a color scheme and know it will be available everywhere.
- Allows color scheme designers to craft a palette of colors once, instantly supporting for many different apps.
Documentation and Specification
The builder and styling specs detail how to compile schemes and templates into application specific configurations.
Scheme
A scheme is a fixed palette of named colors and (optionally) instructions for how those colors should be used by apps.
Style
A style guide provides rules governing how a scheme’s palette should be applied within apps. This means each color is used consistently for similar purposes across all your apps. Individual styling guides often support different sized pallets and have different ideas about how those colors should be deployed.
See the individual styling guides for more information on each:
- Base16 - the original, 16 colors with very fixed semantic meanings.
- Base24 - an extra 8 colors for full ANSI support in your terminals.
A scheme is defined using a YAML file. The file specification is in the Builder Guidelines.
Builder
A builder is a build tool used by various template repositories to generate files based on scheme file and template file.
Template
A template describes how a scheme should be transformed to support a specific application. A template repository defines a template file, then uses a builder to generate application specific files using the template.
Templates often include ready-to-use pre-built versions of every scheme. These are typically installed directly by end users to use the schemes in different applications.
Manager
A manager serves as a central controller for managing and applying themes in your applications.
Supported Applications
Supported applications are applications for which a template exists.
Official Templates
We maintain a number of templates. Each has been sponsored by at least one project member who is committed to maintaining that template.
We are open to accepting new projects, though they must still be sponsored by a project member and have some level of activity. If a project becomes inactive for more than a year, the repo will be archived as inactive. It can be unarchived if another maintainer steps up.

Official Schemes
To add a Base16 scheme, simply submit a pull request to the schemes repo and add your scheme.
Official Builders
Normally end-users should not need to use builders, as they’re primarily meant for maintainers - both scheme and template maintainers. These are tools used to build templates with all the currently submitted schemes.
Spec changes will not be released until there is consensus among maintainers and at least one builder with a pull request ready for implementing that spec version.
See the CHANGELOG for more information about changes in the
spec.
Official Managers
Unofficial Managers
If you have a manager you maintain, but don’t want to submit it to this org, feel free to add a link to the repository here to add it to this list. These are community maintained managers and may not be updated often.
- gnomad maintained by GooseRooster - note: gnomad is a GNOME-centric manager that relies on Tinty being installed to function as a full Manager while also integrating with GNOME Shell.
Unofficial Templates
If you have a template you maintain, but don’t want to submit it to this org, feel free to add a link to the repository here to add it to this list. These are community maintained templates and may not be updated often.
Terminals - terminal and shell related templates
Editors - templates for use in code editors and IDEs
Window Managers - window managers and related utilities
Programming - defaults and utils for use when programming
Other - various applications which don't fit in other categories
Adding Support for a New Application
To add your own template, submit a pull request to this repository to add your repository to the “Unofficial Templates” list below in the relevant category.
Recommended repository naming scheme: [style-name]-[template-name] (with dashes as separators).
See tinted-theming-project-template for a starting template.
Scheme and Template Author Resources
The following is a list of useful resources for anyone creating a Base16 scheme and or template:
- TmTheme Editor - An online editor for themes in tmTheme format.
