About this theme
A CSS theme for Obsidian that applies the Slatewave palette to notes, editor, graph view, and UI chrome.
Slatewave for Obsidian treats your vault as a companion surface to the editor: same palette, same accents, same temperature. Optimized for long-form reading and writing rather than dense code.
