emacs themes
Hi,
I discovered that you can use graphical "themes" with emacs.
There is a website : https://emacsthemes.com/themes/solarized-themes.html
The easy way is to setup melpa.
Add in your .emacs
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)
;; Comment/uncomment this line to enable MELPA Stable if desired. See `package-archive-priorities`
;; and `package-pinned-packages`. Most users will not need or want to do this.
;;(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa-stable" . "https://stable.melpa.org/packages/") t)
(package-initialize)
Start emacs and exec
M-x package-refresh-contents
M-x package-install solarized-theme
And you could choose it.
I don't know if all are free software. https://emacsthemes.com
I started this topic in the wrong category. It should go to General Free Software Talk.
A funny thing is that I browse the web with the graphical emacs. I live more and more in it. I don't want to leave the emacs window to switch to abrowser or atril or mate-terminal, it sound like a bug. emacs is really a good working environment.

If you want a new graphical environment that consume less resources you can use "exwm". It's an official emacs packages. https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/exwm.html
Try compiling an Emacs native build with libjit.
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git
cd ./emacs
sudo apt install build-essential git libgccjit-10-dev
sudo apt build-dep emacs
git checkout emacs-28
./autogen.sh
/configure --with-native-compilation --prefix=/opt/nemacs
make
sudo make install
/opt/nemacs/bin/emacs

Also, if you don't want EXWM, consider eyebrowse as an alternative:

Also eyebrowse-restore https://github.com/FrostyX/eyebrowse-restore

Some grade of customization is available even before you use melpa.
M-x-customize-themes (please use tab, I'm typing this from memory. Might be custom-themes).
There are about 15 themes to choose from. Move the cursor to desired theme and press enter. This will give a preview. Save the buffer to finalize your choice. The selected theme is now the default, which will be loaded on startup.
