Dark Theme for Slack 4+

This is a small script that applies a dark theme to slack. Slack 4+ required as they changed the internals in that version.

Thanks to @caiceA for his work on the CSS portion of the theme. Thanks to @guyhalestorm for his work on the windows section.

The issues were raised in https://github.com/widget-/slack-black-theme/issues/98 so I created a script to support osx, linux and windows.

Install

Make sure to have a recent version of nodejs and npm
Install the asar package globally npm i -g asar
Download the darkSlack.sh and run chmod u+x darkSlack.sh to execute it.
Run ./darkSlack.sh and refresh slack to enjoy the darkness.
You can revert slack to original by running ./darkSlack.sh --revert

OSX and Linux

The script should just work without any issues, if you come accross any then let me know.

Windows Support

To use this script you need to install ubuntu or another linux distro as a windows subsystem for linux (WSL) https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10
