The Roam CSS System

The Roam CSS System is deprecated and replaced by Roam Studio. You can find it under Settings -> Community extensions within Roam Depot in the Roam Research Application.

What is it?

The Roam CSS System is a modular, block-based approach for changing the look and feel of Roam Research. It has been thoughtfully engineered to allow easy customization by the non-tech-affine end user and offers different minimal, beautiful designed elegant themes.

Thanks a lot for your support!

How does this work?

• Create or modify your ‘roam/css’ page.
• Add a new code block at the top and set the language to ‘CSS’.
• For the iA Quattro theme, add the following line to it:

@import url('https://rcvd.github.io/roam-css-system/themes/quattro.css');

• If you want the lesswrong theme, add the following line to it:

@import url('https://rcvd.github.io/roam-css-system/themes/lesswrong.css');

Force light or dark mode

• If you want to force the bright or dark mode independent of the system settings use:

  @import url('https://rcvd.github.io/roam-css-system/themes/quattro_dark.css');

  @import url('https://rcvd.github.io/roam-css-system/themes/lesswrong_dark.css');

  or

  @import url('https://rcvd.github.io/roam-css-system/themes/quattro_light.css');

  @import url('https://rcvd.github.io/roam-css-system/themes/lesswrong_light.css');
