An open source project developed and maintained by Pat Johnson.
ShadowFox was inspired by changes made in Firefox 57, which limited the amount addons could customize both the user interface and "protected" web pages.
This project aims at creating a universal dark theme for Firefox while adhering to the modern design principles set by Mozilla.
Our cross platform installer takes the guess work out of installation. With a few clicks of a button, ShadowFox can be downloaded or seemlesly updated without losing custom configurations.
ShadowFox is the most complete theme available, styling not just the entire user interface, but also "protected" webpages that aren't accessible to normal extensions, like about:preferences and about:addons.
Addons are one of the hallmarks of Firefox. Unlike any other theme, ShadowFox has custom styles available for the most popular extensions, like uBlock Origin, uMatrix, ViolentMonkey, Decentraleyes, Stylus and so many more.
We don't limit your creativity, which means you can customize the colors used and add as many custom tweaks as you want. The possibilities are endless!
Activate the default dark theme Firefox provides (which only alters the navigation and tab bar).
Download the updater script for your operating system.
Run the script and select your Firefox profile and whether or not extensions should be styled.
Make customizations until your heart is content (make sure to run the updater again if you do).
Restart Firefox.
Enjoy your new dark theme, your eyes will thank you!
ShadowFox has relieved a lot of strain on my eyes, thank you for the project it really helps.
Thanks for all the hard work man. Mozilla should add this project to Firefox honestly. Cheers.
Just discovered this and wanted to say THANK YOU for this awesome project, I love it!
What a great project! Thank you so much for that awesome work!
Just wanna say thanks for bringing my favorite theme back!
This should officially be merged
This section can be used to customize the colors utilized by ShadowFox. Accent colors are used for things like buttons, links and tables. The drop down box can be used to darken ShadowFox by one shade. Only necessary changes are inserted into the text box. For more information, see here.
The following tweaks are not written or maintained by me. Instead, they are pulled from popular userChrome repositories from across the web. The location of the tweak along with the appropriate license is attached with each code chunk.
