NOTE: Chrome Canary v.33.0.1706.0 no longer supports custom stylesheets in the User Stylesheets directory. There may be an alternative method to add custom stylesheets via devtools extensions. More to come...
A highly customized dark theme for Google Chrome. There are 2 versions:
Custom.css Tested on Chrome Canary Channel v. 32.0.1690.2 canary
Custom-Stable.css Tested on Chrome Stable Channel v. 30.0.1599.101 m
There are two installation methods:
Requires you to have Ruby and Rake installed. Clone this repo and run rake.
This will install the theme on all profiles for both Stable & Canary. It will backup any existing one to Custom-backup.css
prior to overwriting.
Pick from the snippets below.

All code highlighting has been moved to the top of the stylesheet. Feel free to fork and customize to your liking.
You can adjust the line height for the Elements/Sources Tab, Find, and Console interfaces. It's the first set of selectors in the stylesheet. More info... Thanks to @orloxx for the suggestion.
Animations may cause performance issues depending on the power of your machine. If you notice any issues, you can simply delete the animation section from the stylesheet.
Some extensions don't display well with this theme so I modified the css to improve the presentation. Copy the css file into its respective extension folder.
- Majority of inspector chrome re-styled
- Customized Scrollbars
- Animations for ** finding elements ** setting elements inactive ** elements/sources/network panels
- Subtle pulsating element selection
- Re-styled Popovers (PSD files included)
- Child element styling in elements panel
- Thanks to Simon Owen for the base styles. I used his So-Dark-Monokai-v3 as a starting point.
- CSS Tricks for the tutorial on customized scrollbars.
- Animate.css for some of the animations.
Simon's version also used samples from other templates so I will thank them as well!
