Accent colors provide a way for users to personalize their desktop in a simple, developer-friendly, and effective way. Throughout the community there has been a general interest in the inclusion of accent colors within apps and desktop environments. This proposal aims to standardize an accent color key on the Settings portal.

A new key on the Settings portal, accent-color, would be defined under the org.freedesktop.appearance namespace.

    Nice. This feature is similar to Android wallpaper color theming.

    And I thought Xorg already had this feature in Xresources, but apps do not respect it.

      The setting being located somewhere is never the hard part, it’s all about the different communities respecting it.
