Matugen is a cross-platform CLI tool written in Rust that generates Material You (Material Design 3) and base16 color schemes, typically from a source color or wallpaper. It includes a built-in templating engine for applying generated colors to config files and applications in formats like hex, rgb, and hsl.

Use cases

  • generate a material you color scheme from a wallpaper
  • create base16 color palettes for my terminal
  • apply system-wide color themes from one source color
  • generate color configs for wayland ricing
  • convert a color into hex rgb and hsl formats in templates
  • theme multiple applications consistently with one command

When to choose

  • you want Material Design 3 dynamic color generation on Linux, macOS, or Windows
  • you need to propagate a color scheme into app config files via templates
  • you are theming a Linux desktop (e.g., Hyprland, Waybar) from a wallpaper

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI color picker or design tool rather than a CLI generator
  • you only target Android or web apps where Material Theming is built in
  • you need color scheme formats other than Material You and base16
