Roadmap

[uncenter]

Want to make a general issue to publicly list some plans and thoughts we/I have regarding the future of userstyles. The following list will be updated somewhat frequently as I get through the list :)

Short term

• Review backlog of init PRs: https://github.com/catppuccin/userstyles/pulls?q=is:pr+is:open+-label:%22waiting+on+author%22+draft:false+feat+init+sort:created-asc+-label:pending+.

Documentation website

• Starlight? Waiting on Starlight catppuccin#2574.

Custom GitHub bot

• Ping maintainers on issues for their userstyles.
• Request maintainer reviews for pull requests on their userstyles (replacing CODEOWNERS).
  • Don't request maintainer reviews if the pull request modifies more than, say, 5 userstyles, and/or the pull request is titled with tree-wide. Leave comment noting this, and:
    • Provide command for staff for pinging maintainers on tree-wides. (@catppuccin/userstyles-bot ping tree-wide?)
• Label pull requests (replacing other messy labeler stuff).
• Request staff reviews (individually, not whole team) for init pull requests.
• Provide command for merging pull requests, similar to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-merge-bot. (@catppucicn/userstyles-bot merge?)
  • Verify that user pinging bot is on userstyles-maintainers team.
  • Verify that pull request only modifies files for their userstyle(s).
    • Maintainers should not be able to use the bot to merge init pull requests.
  • Verifies the commit message is appropriate.
  • Verifies all checks have passed and all staff members have approved.
• Use for CI, add as exception to branch rules, avoid USERSTYLES_TOKEN and infinite loop mess.
  • Push formatting, health file, and version bump changes to pull request right before merging? Avoids extra commits by squashing with init PR commit.

Long term

• Upload to userstyles.world #1392
• ci: add script to generate dark reader ignore configuration #967
• Detecting object Object output in compiled Less (Provide error when mixin results in `[object Object]` value less/less.js#4304):

Consolidation

• Bootstrap sites: we have quite a few of these already, I believe 2+ current PRs also theme Bootstrap websites. Would like to look into creating a port for it so we can reuse the code!
• Ace Editor: Split it it's own port? I believe some? one? userstyle themes it and it might be useful by itself.
• Tailwind: TailwindCSS v4 is quickly approaching us and I think it means that sites using Tailwind that upgrade will use CSS variables! 🎉 Hopefully this will work as expected and be on by default, making our lives easier.
  • Ref: https://x.com/adamwathan/status/1842270236071858603?s=46
• Mediawiki: With the recent introduction of dark mode to Mediawiki/Wikipedia, hopefully we will see it rolling out fully on Wikipedia (refactor(wikipedia): rewrite #1075) and the other Mediawiki sites we theme (feat(wiki.nixos.org): init #1199).
• Split Prettylights variables highlighting into separate port: https://github.com/search?q=org:catppuccin+color-prettylights&type=code.
• Split Ace Editor highlighting into separate port: https://github.com/search?q=org:catppuccin+.ace_editor&type=code, feat(pythonanywhere): init #1243.
