This theme has been made with my preference in mind and features the best of dark aesthetics and modern functionality. It offers customization, documentation, support, and instructions for most modern clients. The theme is made with a purple-themed color palette, animations, and features from included themes β such as Radial Status for better visibility of other user's current status, a Settings Modal for a cleaner and more modern Discord settings interface with improved transparency and readability, a horizontal server list for better screen usage, and emoji replacement for a cleaner and more modern look.
I have tried to keep the theme relatively small, simple, and clean for speedy load times on laptops and low-end PCs, and even phones, while maintaining easy use and modification of the theme through documentation, links, support, and issues.
