Theme
3DPrintForge has a flexible theme system that lets you customize the appearance to your taste and use case.
Go to: https://localhost:3443/#settings → Theme
Color mode
Choose between three modes:
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Light | Light background, dark text — good in well-lit rooms |
| Dark | Dark background, light text — default and recommended for monitoring |
| Auto | Follows the operating system's setting (OS dark/light) |
Change mode at the top of the theme settings or via the shortcut in the navigation bar (moon/sun icon).
Color palettes
Six preset color palettes are available:
| Palette | Primary color | Style |
|---|---|---|
| Bambu | Green (#00C853) | Default, inspired by Bambu Lab |
| Blue Night | Blue (#2196F3) | Calm and professional |
| Sunset | Orange (#FF6D00) | Warm and energetic |
| Purple | Purple (#9C27B0) | Creative and distinct |
| Red | Red (#F44336) | High contrast, eye-catching |
| Monochrome | Gray (#607D8B) | Neutral and minimalist |
Click on a palette to preview and activate it immediately.
Custom accent color
Use your own color as the accent color:
- Click Custom color below the palette selector
- Use the color picker or type a hex code (e.g.
#FF5722) - The preview updates in real time
- Click Apply to activate
Make sure the accent color has good contrast against the background. The system warns if the color may cause readability issues (WCAG AA standard).
Roundness
Adjust the roundness of buttons, cards, and elements:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Sharp | No rounding (rectangular style) |
| Small | Subtle rounding (4 px) |
| Medium | Standard rounding (8 px) |
| Large | Pronounced rounding (16 px) |
| Pill | Maximum rounding (50 px) |
Slide the slider to adjust manually between 0–50 px.
Density
Customize the density of the interface:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Spacious | More space between elements |
| Standard | Balanced, default setting |
| Compact | Tighter packing — more info on screen |
Compact mode is recommended for screens below 1080p or kiosk viewing.
Typography
Choose a font:
- System — uses the operating system's default font (fast to load)
- Inter — clear and modern (default choice)
- JetBrains Mono — monospace, good for data values
- Nunito — softer and more rounded style
Animations
Turn off or customize animations:
- Full — all transitions and animations active (default)
- Reduced — only necessary animations (respects OS preference)
- Off — no animations for maximum performance
For kiosk viewing, enable Compact + Dark + Reduced animations for optimal performance and readability from a distance. See Kiosk Mode.

Share your theme with others:
- Click Export theme — downloads a
.jsonfile - Share the file with other 3DPrintForge users
