The Take

Preserves comments, blank lines and option ordering while giving you type-aware widgets (toggles, enums, color pickers) and a live theme browser with inline color swatches. It even triggers SIGUSR2 to hot-reload Ghostty and hides irrelevant options by OS — smart, pragmatic touches that make a narrow problem genuinely less annoying.

Target Audience

Ghostty users, terminal enthusiasts, and developers/sysadmins who tweak terminal configurations

Axelor Theme Designer

This focuses squarely on Axelor theming: live preview, per-component controls, JSON import/export and preset palettes let you iterate without hopping between designer and ERP instance. The re-upload workflow and component-level tokens are the practical wins here — not revolutionary, but they remove tedious manual steps for anyone customizing Axelor UIs.
