colourless-themes is a collection of “primarily colourless themes". This was forked from Tomas Letan’s macro of the same name.1

1.1 Installation #

Install this how you would install a package from github - this varies with the flavour of Emacs or the setup in use. If you use a Frankenstein’s monster like I use, do:
