Docgen

A warm, near-black documentation theme for Obsidian, modeled after the aesthetic of the docgen documentation generator (docgen-rs). Honey-amber accents on a warm near-black surface, set in Geist. Dark is the primary mode; a light mode ships alongside it.

Features

• Warm near-black palette with a honey-amber accent — easy on the eyes for long documentation sessions.
• Geist + Geist Mono, embedded directly in theme.css as base64 so the fonts render regardless of how Obsidian injects the stylesheet (no external font requests, works fully offline).
• Dark and light modes, both tuned from the same token set.

Installation

From the community themes directory (once published)

1. Open Settings → Appearance → Themes → Manage.
2. Search for Docgen and select Install and use.

Manual installation

1. Download manifest.json and theme.css from the latest release.
2. In your vault, create the folder .obsidian/themes/Docgen/ and place both files inside it.
3. Open Settings → Appearance → Themes and select Docgen.

Development

theme.css is the single source of truth and is self-contained — the Geist fonts are inlined, so no build step is required to use it. The original .woff2 sources live in fonts/ for reference and re-embedding.
