macOS Classic for Omarchy

An Omarchy theme based on Jason Lee's macOS Classic palette — near-black surfaces, cool gray text, and bright blue accents. Includes application colors and a detailed dark pixel-art moon scene shared by the desktop and login screen.

Install

omarchy theme install https://github.com/huacnlee/omarchy-macos-classic-theme

This installs the theme as macos-classic and applies it right away. Pick it up again later with omarchy theme set macos-classic, and pull in updates with omarchy theme update.

The palette is designed for Monaco. Once a licensed copy is installed, apply it with omarchy font set Monaco.

Light variant

A light variant lives in macos-classic-light/. It is less polished than the dark theme, and omarchy theme install cannot reach it — omarchy builds exactly one theme per repository, from the files at the top level. Install it by hand:

git clone https://github.com/huacnlee/omarchy-macos-classic-theme
cd omarchy-macos-classic-theme
./install.sh
omarchy theme set macos-classic-light

install.sh installs both variants and applies macos-classic; pass --no-activate to install without switching themes.

Slack

Each variant includes a Slack custom theme that you can import manually:

1. Open your profile menu in Slack and select Preferences.
2. Open Appearance, select Custom theme, then choose Import theme.
3. Paste the contents of slack.theme for dark mode or macos-classic-light/slack.theme for light mode, then apply it.

Slack stores custom themes per user rather than reading them from Omarchy, so changing Omarchy themes does not switch Slack automatically.

Longbridge

longbridge.json is the dark palette as a Longbridge desktop theme. install.sh copies it to ~/.longbridge/themes/omarchy.json, and the app hot-reloads its themes, so no restart is needed — pick Omarchy System in the theme selector.

Only the dark variant is included. The installed file is named omarchy.json rather than after this theme, so any other Omarchy theme shipping one overwrites the same file: the selector keeps a single Omarchy System entry instead of collecting one per theme.

If the app has never run, ~/.longbridge does not exist yet and the installer skips this step; run Longbridge once, then run ./install.sh again.
