Reference criteria

About the old scoring system

Henceforth, the scoring system will be delegated as second class. It shall be changed merely to serve as a reference, which is what this site should be.

About the reference criteria

Each of the themes will be evaluated on the following criteria, serving as information users would be interested in:

  • Dark/Light mode support

  • Whether there is a supported colour scheme provided by the theme for light/dark mode or both

  • One or multiple colour schemes

  • Whether the theme bundles one colour scheme for light/dark mode, both light and dark more, or multiple colour schemes for light and dark mode

  • Value propositions

  • What the theme does different from others

  • Accessibility

  • Was the theme built with accessibility in mind? Are there any options to configure stuff like contrast and font size?

  • Style Settings support

  • Does the theme add customisation options via Style Settings?

  • Age of the theme

  • Older themes are expected to be more mature and stable

  • Last Updated

  • Is this theme actively maintained? When was it last updated?
