There was like 8 prereleases for this because i kept changing stuff. This is actually going to be from v1.31.1 and v1.31.2.

Biggest changes

Command palette

Theming changes

  • You can now have multiple presets for themes, and there are 5 default presets. (Default, Classic, AMOLED, Catppuccin, Lightly)
  • Admins can set their own default theme for photon with PUBLIC_THEME.

New markdown renderer

  • Photon now uses svelte-markdown for markdown rendering, which lets me use custom components for markdown.
  • Instead of only style changes, I can run actual code, meaning images can be made expandable and codeblocks can be copyable.
