More modern optics?

[GustelDE]

Hi, I would like to see more "modern" themes or options to make existing themes more modern.
A example is this page: https://link.me/thedarlla

Buttons with a picture, multi-column, picture on top which fades-in/out. I know you can do a lot with fiddling around the css the deep of the docker-installation-volume-folders. But to be honest, thats more pain than anything else and with the next theme-update your work is gone...

I hope there is any progress in the "optics" topic, because in the end, no one cares about how the update-mechanism is implemented or which framework is used. They care about how the site looks and regarding this, IMHO the whole project is around 10 years back, compared to modern link-sites.

I came to see if there are any theme devs that freelance. I’d pay to have a theme like this created. I looked on Fiverr. So far haven’t had any luck.

Just wanted to throw this out there:

We generally offer custom development for LinkStack.

Over the last few releases we've made some major improvements to the extension system, allowing modular addons that make pretty much anything possible now including custom themes, dashboard layouts, and entirely new link block types.

One thing worth mentioning is that we've deliberately chosen to prioritize privacy and data ownership. That means we don't automatically include some of the features you'll find on other platforms (like social media embeds and similar integrations), because our goal is to give users as much control over their own data as possible.

That said, features like these are absolutely possible to add as plugins if they're desired.

We've also put a lot of effort into documenting the extension system and keeping the barrier to entry as low as possible, so any developer should be able to get up to speed without having to dig through the core codebase.

So if you're looking for a custom link page theme, dashboard theme, or custom block elements, that's something we can help with.
If you're interested in our in-house custom development services, feel free to contact us at info@linkstack.org or reach out on Discord.

If you end up working with another freelancer instead, I'd recommend pointing them to our GitHub organization profile . They'll find all of the developer documentation and examples there to help them get started.
