Different blogging platforms use different JSON names (also known as keys, property names, or fields) for their theme configuration settings. When inspecting records directly via pdsls.dev it can get confusing fast.
<!--more-->
This reference maps standard.site JSON fields to their platform-specific equivalents so anyone can quickly translate between different naming schemes.
| standard.site | accent | background | foreground | accentForeground | Extras |
|:--|:--:|:--:|:--:|:--:|:--:|
| GreenGale | accent | background | text | background | codeBackground |
| Leaflet | accentBackground | backgroundColor | primary | accentText | pageBackground |
| MySky | (standard) | (standard) | (standard) | (standard) | — |
| Offprint | — | — | — | — | — |
| pckt | accent | background | text | surfaceHover | link |
Notes:
- (standard) means the platform is only using standard.site properties.
- This document will be updated as new platforms adopt the standard.site lexicon, or invent their own variations.
If you are debugging theme rendering issues, migrating styles between platforms, or building tooling around AT Protocol records, this mapping should hopefully save you precious time.
Enjoy!
