Highly accessible themes, conforming with the highest standard for colour contrast between background and foreground values (WCAG AAA). They also are optimised for users with red-green colour deficiency.
The themes are very customisable and provide support for a very wide range of packages. Their manual is detailed so that new users can get started, while it also provides custom code for all sorts of more advanced customisations.
Since August 2020, the original Modus themes (modus-operandi,
modus-vivendi) are built into Emacs version 28 or higher. Emacs 28
ships with modus-themes version 1.6.0. Emacs 29 includes version
3.0.0. Emacs 30 provides a newer, refactored version that
thoroughly refashions how the themes are implemented and customized.
Such major versions are not backward-compatible due to the limited
resources at my disposal to support multiple versions of Emacs and of
the themes across the years.
