My Joplin CSS

Archive Note: I was testing and playing with Joplin in H1/2023 and found it to be a very interesting project. So much that I started customizing it with my own CSS (this repo). It however lacked quite a few features that I needed, thus I switched back to my previous note taking app and archived this repo.

This repo contains the CSS that I use to customize how Joplin Desktop on OSX looks. The default is a a bit, well, meh to my eyes.

How to set up

  1. Delete both css files, if they exist, from your Joplin config dir
rm ~/.config/joplin-desktop/userstyle.css
rm ~/.config/joplin-desktop/userchrome.css
  1. Softlink the userstyle.css and userchrome.css files in this repo into the Joplin config dir
ln -s <local path to repo>/userstyle.css ~/.config/joplin-desktop/userstyle.css
ln -s <local path to repo>/userchrome.css ~/.config/joplin-desktop/userchrome.css

Now you have these 2 files under source control.

How to know which style to change?

What is the development flow?

  • Start Joplin
  • Show Dev Tools from the menu at Help->Toggle development tools
  • Edit css file
  • Reload all files by hitting CMD+Shift+R while the dev tools are open (shortcut won't work if the dev tools are not open)
