Week 6: Combobox UI Component and Global Theme Integration

During the week, I focused on adding a new Combobox UI element to FURY and implementing global theming for the FURY website’s internal pages.

Overview

This week, I worked on the following pull requests:

UI Components Development

• Introduces Combobox (#1271) I added the Combobox component to FURY, allowing users to select an option from a drop-down menu within the UI.

  

Website Revamp and Global Theming

• Migrate images to PNG and update logo card styling (#1275) I migrated existing images to PNG format, so they work well even in dark mode and updated the styling of the logo cards on the website for a cleaner look.

  

• Extracts shared navbar/footer styles into fury_theme.css and scope homepage.css to home.html (#1276) To prevent unintentional CSS side effects on non-homepages, I extracted the shared navbar and footer styles into a separate file and scoped the homepage styles appropriately.

  

• Implements global light mode theme for internal pages (same as homepage) (#1281) I expanded the new light mode theme from the homepage to all internal documentation pages, ensuring a consistent look and feel throughout the website.

  

• Implements global dark mode theme for internal pages (same as homepage) (#1278) Following the light mode implementation, I added a global dark mode theme for all internal pages. I also ensured that the red gradient remains visible when scrolling in dark mode.

  

• Override Default CSS with Custom Styles to Update Doc Page Colors (#1282) I identified and overrode the default colors for the documentation pages with custom styles. This is a temporary update to match the new themes while the final designs are being completed.

  

What I Learned

This week was largely focused on CSS architecture and theme management. I learned how to effectively scope CSS to specific pages to avoid style leakage and how to create a consistent theming system across both light and dark modes. I also gained experience in overriding default Sphinx styles to align with custom design requirements. In addition, I successfully integrated a new UI element, the Combobox.

In the upcoming week, I plan to:

• Finalize the custom styling for the internal documentation pages once the final designs are ready.

• Continue working on advanced UI components, such as the Tree UI.

• Adding new Rounded Rectangle to FURY.
