Hello, is it possible to modify the styling of the code-editor, e.g. through css?

I work a lot at night times and the whiteness of the UI messes with my eyes.

If you are using NetLogo Web, it is configurable.

Thanks for the quick response. Does this require me to clone this repository: https://github.com/NetLogo/Galapagos and edit the style file from there. Or can I simply modify the stylesheet without having to build the application myself? If I do have to build it myself, could you point me to some resources on how to set it up (I could not find any clear instructions in the readme or wiki pages of the netlogo repo.. I am not familiar with scala nor groovy (though I am familiar with Java/Gradle/Maven/Kotlin).

Thanks again.

The easiest thing could be to export a standalone NetLogo Web page and modify the stylesheet there.

The NLW editor is based on CodeMirror 5, and you can override the stylesheet to achieve what you want.

Ah that makes total sense! Thank you sir :)

Would be nice if the community could share themes with others. I am definitely going to make a beautiful one. But I might make a new conversation for that when I am done.
