arduino-dark-theme's Issues

[Improvement] Update structure to support built-in Arduino theme mechanism

Arduino IDE has built-in theme mechanism. There is no need to hack installation files.
See https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=443558.msg3887412#msg3887412 and arduino/Arduino#7124.

Serial monitor

could you apply this theme also to the Serial monitor?

v0.3 missing bottom status bar

The v0.3 theme is missing the bottom status bar, which would normally show the board name and port number.
