* [Themes] Add identity default palettes for the image themes
The Fabric, Leather, Plasma and VelvetMarble themes shipped only zone art and no palette, so their chrome fell back to the bare OS palette. Each theme now ships light and dark curated defaults written in the palette editor's own conventions, with [AppColors] so the home-tab buttons keep the theme's identity over static backgrounds.
- Add palette-default-light.toml / palette-default-dark.toml for the four themes; scheme resolution follows the OS since the themes declare no color scheme.
- Tint the window/base/button chrome and bevels towards each theme's identity: navy cloth (Fabric), black-brown with brass accents (Leather), electric violet with cyan sparks (Plasma), charcoal velvet with slate marble (VelvetMarble).
- Fill [AppColors] AccentStrong / AccentSoft per theme so the home-tab button gradient matches instead of falling back to the default greens.
- Derive Disabled and Inactive groups with the same conventions as PaletteGenerator::fromAccent.
* [Themes] Add home backgrounds for the image themes
* [Themes] Ship Fusion style + scheme backgrounds for the image themes
Address PR review:
- Add theme.cfg ([Style] Name = Fusion, ColorScheme = System) to Fabric,
Leather, Plasma and VelvetMarble so their curated palettes actually apply.
Without it the native style paints button chrome from the OS (windowsvista
on Windows has no dark mode), making the dark palettes' light ButtonText
unreadable on light buttons.
- Leverage the scheme-variant asset resolution: register home-dark.png and
home-light.png in resources and add them to the qrc so the built-in home
background also flips with the palette instead of staying static.
- Fix Leather [Palette.Inactive] Accent, which copied the Active Highlight
color instead of the theme accent (dark #4a5f8f -> #c9995a, light
#34508c -> #a5712f) in both palette files.
* [Themes] Align light plasma home background with the dark variant
Recolored the Plasma light home background to mirror the dark one:
brighter violet/cyan blooms, vivid azure spark arcs, and higher accent
saturation against the same pale-lavender key. Brightness is unchanged
so it still reads as a light scheme.
* [Home] Add option to disable the home tab background dim
Adds a 'Dim the home tab background' checkbox to the Home tab settings
page (Appearance). When unchecked, HomeWidget skips the translucent
black overlay it paints over the whole background. Default is on,
preserving current behavior; the home tab repaints live on change.
* Update leather backgrounds
* Update velvet marble backgrounds
* Update light plasma background
* Update light fabric background
* WIP [UI] Theme-aware onboarding banner with frosted light mode
Banner colours now derive from palette tokens at ~60fps (tick-driven,
equality-guarded setters) so scheme switches and live accent-picker
previews apply instantly:
- dark stages: byte-for-byte the original treatment (near-black stage
from window hue, Highlight accent, white centre halo, vignette 0.62)
- light stages: pastel accent-hue wash instead of a neutral grey copy,
brightness-lifted accent for additive glow legibility, deep-Highlight
halo (uGlowColor) instead of white blowout, gentler vignette
(uVignetteMin 0.88) so corners don't go muddy
- black logo silhouette variant selected on light stages
- theme picker preseeded with brand green (brand_colors.h single source)
WIP notes for next session:
- real-pixel wizard screenshot check still pending (headless capture
exists: Xvfb :77 + isolated XDG_DATA_HOME; shader vs fallback pixel
analysis not finished)
- user plans separately: promote Fusion to default theme, Default -> system
* [Themes] Align Fusion accent tokens with the SVG brand gradient
Align AccentStrong (#139740) and AccentSoft (#c9fd62) and the linked
Link/Accent roles with cockatrice.svg's linearGradient4265-7-8 stops so the
identity gradient used by the logo emulation matches the static art the icon
shipped.
* [Onboarding] Draw the banner logo as a static gradient plate
Replace the black/white logo tint switch with a ShaderEffect plate that
repaints the SVG's brand gradient (light AccentSoft -> dark AccentStrong
along the baked-in userSpaceOnUse axis) clipped to the full-color logo's
alpha silhouette, with the white highlight path overlaid on top — matching
the home widget's QPainter composite. The plate is static: no glow or
breathing. Brand colors flow from BannerShaderConfig's new brandStrong/
brandSoft pair instead of the removed logoDark flag, and the background
motifs get a touch more accent so the mark keeps its coloured surround.
* [Home] Draw the featured logo as a theme gradient composite
Repaint cockatrice.svg in Qt instead of showing the baked-in static art:
fill the full-color logo's alpha silhouette with the same brand gradient the
banner plate uses (light AccentSoft grading to dark AccentStrong along the
SVG's userSpaceOnUse axis), then overlay the white highlight path. Renders
an explicit QPixmap so the mark stays crisp at the 200px display size, and
re-seeds it on theme/palette/appearance changes so it never goes stale.
* [Resources] Drop the unused black logo asset
No consumer remains after the banner's logoDark toggle was replaced by the
static gradient plate (unit-tested in

Cockatrice
Cockatrice is an open-source, multiplatform application for playing tabletop card games over a network. The program's server design prevents users from manipulating the game for unfair advantage. The client also provides a single-player mode, which allows users to brew while offline.
This project uses C++ and the Qt libraries.
Download 
Downloads are available for stable releases and the current beta version in development.
There is no strict release schedule for either of them.

Repository Activity
Code
To contribute code to the project, please review our guidelines first.
We maintain two tags for contributors to easier find issues to potentially work on:
Issues tagged in this way provide a simple way to get started. They don't require much experience to be worked on.
This tag is used for issues that we are looking for somebody to pick up. Often this is for feature suggestions we support, but don't have the time to work on ourselves.
For both tags, we're willing to provide help to contributors in showing them where and how they can make changes, as well as code reviews for submitted changes.
We'll happily advice on how best to implement a feature, or we can show you where the codebase is doing something similar before you get too far along - put a note on an issue you want to discuss more on!
You can also have a look at our Todo List in our Code Documentation or search the repo for \todo comments.
Documentation 
There are various places where useful information for different needs are maintained:
- Official Code Documentation
- Official Wiki
Community supported - Official Webpage
- Official README
This file
Cockatrice tries to use the Google Developer Documentation Style Guide to ensure consistent documentation. We encourage you to improve the documentation by suggesting edits based on this guide.
Translation 
Cockatrice uses Transifex to manage translations. You can help us bring Cockatrice and Oracle to your language and just adjust single wordings right from within your browser by visiting our Transifex project page. The Webatrice web client manages its own translations in its repo.
Check out our Translator FAQ for more information about getting involved, and join a group of hundreds of others!
Build 
Dependencies: (for minimum versions search our CMake file)
Oracle can optionally use some packages to load compressed card files:
Basic compilation steps:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
You can then
- Create a Cockatrice installation inside the
releasefolder:make install - Or make an installation package specific to your system:
make package
Note
Detailed compiling instructions can be found in the Cockatrice wiki at Compiling Cockatrice
The following flags (with their non-default values) can be passed to cmake:
| Flag | Description |

-DWITH_CLIENT=0 |
Don't build Cockatrice client |
-DWITH_ORACLE=0 |

-DWARNING_AS_ERROR=0 |
Don't treat compilation warnings as errors in debug mode |
-DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=1 |
Configure make to update the translation .ts files for new strings in the source codeNote: make clean will remove the .ts files |
-DTEST=1 |

Run
Cockatrice is the game client
Oracle fetches card data
Servatrice is the server
Docker
You can build an image & deploy a Servatrice (Cockatrice server) container using Docker and our Dockerfile yourself.
For more details, look into our wiki section on Setting up Servatrice.
You'll also find more hints on our pre-build image there, or the docker-compose file which will configure and run both a MySQL server and Servatrice.
