Building Arcitect: A Custom Theme Editor for Arc Browser
Hey everyone! Mihai here. I've been working on Arcitect - a custom theme editor for Arc Browser because I wanted more control over how my browser looks.
The Website
Just finished the landing page and I'm pretty happy with it. Took inspiration from clean app sites like Raycast and TabLift. The coolest part is the interactive demo where you can actually try different themes and see how they'd look in Arc Browser in real time.
I included popular developer themes like Catppuccin Mocha, Dracula, Tokyo Night, Nord, and Gruvbox. The demo shows a realistic Arc interface with sidebar, tabs, and address bar that updates instantly when you switch themes.
Built it with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui. Hosting on GitHub Pages was tricky - had some CSS loading issues but got it working with the right static export config.
What's Next
Planning to build the actual macOS app with Swift/SwiftUI. Features will include visual theme editing, one-click Arc Browser integration, and a community theme library. Thinking of making it open source too.
Check it out at turtle-key.github.io/Arcitect and let me know what you think!
