Tunefish

Hi all, I've been running Unraid for many years now and I really like it, but the web interface always felt a bit dated to me. So in my spare time I started building my own theme, and step by step it grew into a complete plugin. It's called Aurora Theme and I'd like to share it with you. [Screenshot: Dashboard, dark] It's more than new colours. I went through pretty much every page and redesigned the things that bugged me: • The Dashboard is built from cards now, with a summary at the top (uptime, CPU, memory, array). Click a container and you get a small dialog with all its actions. • On Main the disk tables got status dots, temperature chips and usage bars, and Array Operation is a set of cards. Parity check and mover show their progress live. • The Docker list is more compact, with a WebUI button for every container and groups you can create yourself. When you edit a container, the ports are checked while you type. • VMs can be expanded to show their disks, interfaces and snapshots. • Settings and Tools have a search field, and you can star the pages you use most. • I also restyled Apps, the tool pages, the help texts, the dialogs and even the login page. • There's a Stats tab with charts for CPU, memory, network and disks. It replaces Dynamix System Statistics, so please remove that one first. You can choose between a top bar and a sidebar layout, and switch between dark and light with one click. It works on my phone too. [Screenshots: light palette, sidebar layout, Docker, Array Operation] How this was madeTo be transparent: I'm a hobby programmer, not a professional developer. I made this project with the help of Claude, Anthropic's AI. The ideas, the design decisions and all the testing on my own server came from me. Claude helped me write a large part of the code and turn my ideas into a working plugin. Without it, a project this size wouldn't have been possible for me in my spare time. I still check every change on my server before I release it, and the full source code is public on GitHub, so anyone can see what the plugin does. How to installIt isn't in Community Applications yet, so for now: go to Plugins → Install Plugin, paste this address and click Install: https://github.com/Tunefish92/Aurora-Theme/releases/latest/download/Aurora-Theme.plg You need Unraid 7.2 or newer. The theme follows your choice in Settings → Display Settings: Black gives you the dark look, White the light one. The other themes stay untouched. The plugin's own settings are under Settings → User Utilities → Aurora Theme. Updates come from my GitHub releases. The plugin checks once an hour and updates itself; you can turn that off in its settings and use "Check for updates" instead. If something breaksAdd ?aurora=off to any address (for example /Dashboard?aurora=off) and you have Unraid's normal look back in that browser. ?aurora=on brings the theme back. Removing the plugin restores everything, including the login page. If you like to tweak things yourself, you can put your own CSS and JavaScript in /boot/config/plugins/Aurora-Theme/custom.css and custom.js. They survive updates. FeedbackI've tested it on Unraid 7.3 together with Community Applications and Unassigned Devices, but I'm sure you'll find things I missed, especially with other plugins. Please let me know here or open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/Tunefish92/Aurora-Theme/issues The plugin's settings page can prefill an issue for you, including your system details. Screenshots help a lot.
