Themes and UI cusomization #418

Description

@13zebras

I would strongly encourage you to adopt theming and full UI customization like VS Code or Zed.

Why?

Some of us can't stare at the dull white on black text that Codex app has. I can't read the code as well without coloring the syntax. No, not a skill issue, but rather a bit of neurodivergence. I need the color and ability to adjust font-family, font-size, etc.

CLI's are better, but not perfect.

    I think that the approach mentioned in that issue is the better one. Give me a custom CSS stylesheet or snippets like Obsidian! As long as I can launch devtools in t3code, then I can modify the UI to my hearts content.

    The only problem: Tailwind. It is hard to customize a UI that uses Tailwind. You will need some unique class or id names unless I just override your tailwind classes, which can be tedious.

    first thing i did! open settings to see if i could use a theme that isn't such a harsh white or black, and inherit text scaling for my 4k tv display that's on the opposite wall. +1

    I didn't have time to thoroughly review your PR. But I did leave a comment saying the general direction you took is what I would have liked to see.
