CSS help #8

Generally, I'd love to make the look & feel a lot better, but I have no idea what I'm doing. If you have opinions and/or skills, let's see what we can do.

Hi @tkellogg , I've had a look at your application from the sneak peek in the readme, and I believe some adjustments in text contrast, visual hierarchy, and margins would make your application look much better. Also, I have a few thoughts on the configuration components, but these suggestions would largely depend on the specific goals and style you envision for the application. Also please let me know if there are any specific design principles or constraints you'd like me to keep in mind while making suggestions. I am also very familiar with CSS.

Oh, that would be great. I honestly don't have much in mind. Right now it's a dark theme, but it would be great if it were adaptive to the system theme. To be honest, what I have is the best I could do with my limited knowlege + ChatGPT. Just about anything you want to add would be very welcome.

I cleaned it up a little by increasing the text's contrast, evening out the layout, and giving the components a consistent x margin. What do you think? Still haven't gotten to the toots since I haven't set up the access token.

Oh, yeah, that looks pretty good. Some contrast really helps.

@therealshizan sorry for taking so long to get back. This issue is a bit too broad to be assigned. If you have a specific improvement you think should be made, create an issue and I can assign it to you.
