Here is how I think we should be evolving JavaFX CSS over the next period of time:
1. Media queries Gist: https://gist.github.com/mstr2/cbb93bff03e073ec0c32aac317b22de7 PR: https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/1655 This feature is already out for review. 2. System colors Gist: https://gist.github.com/mstr2/afac42ab9587c1040a6cf7b091cee99f System colors allow stylesheet authors to use colors that are defined by the scene or the platform. Most notably, this includes the accent color. We will also add new media queries to help stylesheet authors deal with contrast modes. 3. With media queries and system colors in place, we can remove the built-in high contrast stylesheets that come with Caspian and Modena. Instead of hard-coding these special cases (and not even in a good way), we can now use standard APIs to achieve a better result. This will remove a big chunk of special-casing from the codebase and bring us closer to an equal playing field of built-in vs. third-party themes. 4. Dark Modena / Modena 2025? 5. Bold new theme? What do you think? Please focus comments on step 1-3, and not on bikeshedding a new theme.
