Solarized Web — Eye-Friendly Theme for Every Site

Tired of staring at harsh white screens all day? Solarized Web replaces the blinding whites and cold grays on your favorite websites with the warm, scientifically-designed Solarized Light palette — reducing eye strain without sacrificing readability. WORKS EVERYWHERE The extension ships with tuned support for a curated set of popular sites across search, email, social, media, productivity, and developer tools. For anything not on the built-in list, open the popup, switch to the Custom tab, and type any domain — the theme is applied instantly. HOW IT WORKS Two-layer approach for reliable, complete theming: 1. CSS Variable Overrides — Each site's design system (GitHub Primer, Gmail Material 3, Reddit RPL, etc.) is precisely remapped to Solarized colors. Instant theming, no flash of unstyled content. 2. DOM-Based Color Rewriter — A generic engine walks every element on the page and remaps hardcoded neutral colors (whites, grays, blacks) to Solarized equivalents. This catches everything that CSS variables miss — inline styles, dynamically loaded CSS, shadow DOM fallbacks. Semantic colors are preserved: errors stay red, success stays green, links stay blue. Only neutral/achromatic colors are remapped.
