Gib Tweaks

Gib Tweaks is a desktop companion plugin for Gib Theme. It provides typography overrides that CSS settings cannot conveniently express and a small set of workspace behaviors.

Features

• Configure body, heading, interface, and monospace font families.
• Adjust body text, heading, inline-title, code, emphasis, and UI typography.
• Load a selected Obsidian workspace at startup.
• Optionally close sidebar panels that Obsidian restores during startup.
• Embed the native status bar as a full-width footer inside the bottom-most right sidebar panel, matching the left vault and settings footer height; main-workspace placement remains available as an option.
• Coordinate status-bar placement with Gib Theme so its main-workspace rules do not leak into the right-sidebar footer.

Empty typography fields inherit from the active theme or Obsidian defaults. The plugin is designed for Gib Theme but does not install the theme itself.

Install with BRAT

1. Install and enable BRAT in Obsidian.
2. Open BRAT settings and choose Add Beta Plugin.
3. Enter Giblicious/Gib-Tweaks.
4. Enable Gib Tweaks under Community plugins.

Gib Tweaks is desktop-only because its workspace and status-bar behavior depends on desktop layout APIs.

Development

npm ci
npm run build
npm run check

Source lives under src/. The build produces BRAT's required root-level main.js; manifest.json and styles.css are also kept at the repository root. Do not develop in or copy builds directly into a real vault installation.

Release

1. Update the version in package.json, manifest.json, and versions.json.
2. Update CHANGELOG.md.
3. Run npm run check and commit the generated main.js.
4. Push the tested commit and create a numeric version tag matching the manifest, such as 0.1.0.
5. GitHub Actions publishes the BRAT release assets. BRAT remains responsible for installing or updating the plugin in Obsidian.
