Stylix is a theming framework for NixOS, Home Manager, nix-darwin, and Nix-on-Droid that applies color schemes, wallpapers, and fonts to a wide range of applications. It goes beyond simple color scheme utilities by automatically theming supported applications following an 'it just works' philosophy.
Use cases
- apply a consistent color scheme across all my NixOS applications
- theme my entire desktop from a single wallpaper
- set system-wide fonts and colors declaratively
- rice my NixOS setup with one configuration
- apply dark and light themes across GNOME, KDE, and terminal apps
- manage themes on macOS with nix-darwin
- try out themed desktop demos with nix run
When to choose
- you use NixOS, Home Manager, nix-darwin, or Nix-on-Droid and want unified theming
- you want applications themed automatically from a single color scheme or wallpaper
- you prefer declarative, reproducible system theming
When to avoid
- you don't use Nix or the Nix ecosystem
- you need fine-grained manual control over each application's theme
- you use desktop environments with incomplete support like KDE Plasma and need pixel-perfect theming today
