Create fully customizable themes for Linear by setting a few key colors like background, text, and accent, which are then used to generate complementary shades. Share themes with others by copying a single-line color list, and access customization options from account settings preferences.
Custom Themes
We want Linear to fit into your workflow and feel like it's your tool. We initially created dark and light themes so that you could customize the app to your preference and now we've added the ability for you to set any theme you wish.
Theming apps can be complicated and we wanted to make this feature accessible for everyone. We've designed it so that you only need to set a few colors, such as the background, text and accent colors, which we then use to generate complimentary shades for borders and elevated boxes. To customize the theme in Linear, you can simply take the colors of your favorite text editor or set it to match your company colors. You can also share Linear themes with others by copying and pasting a single-line list of colors. Add custom themes under preferences in account settings.
Here are some themes we use on the team. Join our Linear community Slack to share custom themes you create with others in the new #themes channel.
