feat: RFC theme improvements - #880
Conversation
Proposes a rewrite of the Theme component and a restructuring of the token stylesheets. Moves token mounting off <html> onto a theme element so root, scoped, and portalled themes share one mechanism, and adds the customisation surface tracked in #578 — appearance, accent, gray, radius, scaling, panel background, reduced motion and font families — plus per-component radius overrides. Retires the `style` prop. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ak6Gi4GPEXvYyGZ3mrPMBW

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe RFC proposes a breaking rewrite of Apsara’s theme system. It defines element-mounted tokens, SSR and hydration behavior, controlled and uncontrolled settings, persistence, appearance resolution, scaling, radius, surfaces, motion, fonts, and palettes. It also specifies portal reinjection, component radius overrides, API removals, migration impacts, implementation phases, testing requirements, alternatives, and rejected approaches.

- Around line 381-383: Revise the Phase 1 description to remove the claims that
it is invisible and has no behavioral delta. Document the consumer impact of
moving spacing, effects, and z-index tokens and the cascade change from wrapping
declarations in :where(), or specify temporary fallback tokens and atomic phase
delivery to preserve compatibility.
- Around line 10-12: Clarify the retired API in the RFC by distinguishing the
Theme component’s removed style prop from supported token customization
mechanisms. Update the migration guidance and examples around the Theme
style-prop retirement and the `--rs-*` usage to explicitly identify whether
customization uses a rendered DOM style attribute, a `.rs-theme` CSS rule, or
another supported mechanism, and keep the documented mechanism consistent
throughout.
- Around line 187-203: Update the inline script emission rules and the “The
Inline Script” description so they are based on server/client nondeterminism
rather than persistence alone. Include every uncontrolled setting whose client
value may differ from the server-rendered value, including persisted enumerated
settings and appearance values resolved from system preference, or explicitly
document the chosen fallback behavior and keep the shared configuration
consistent for both the script and React reader.
- Around line 189-197: Update the RFC’s inline-script design to require enum
validation for fontFamily, fontFamilyTitle, fontFamilyMono, and persist
setting-key arrays before use. Require context-safe serialization of all
embedded values, including escaping quotes and the </script> sequence, and add
tests covering hostile persisted values.
- Around line 143-147: Update the RFC’s storage documentation around the
storageKey setting to define the default namespace and exact per-setting key
format, using the existing theme storage convention as the reference. Add
explicit migration behavior for existing theme data, including whether migration
is automatic, opt-in, or results in a reset when adopting the new format.
- Around line 183-185: Update the setting write path described in the
useSyncExternalStore section to notify internal subscribers before persisting
the new value, since same-page writes do not emit storage events. Retain the
existing storage-event listener to preserve cross-tab synchronization, and
ensure subscribers receive the updated primitive value.
- Around line 225-251: Update the theme token definitions described in the
Radius and scaling sections so every rs-theme scope recomputes scaled spacing
and radius tokens from raw base values using that scope’s own --rs-scaling and
radius factor, rather than inheriting already-resolved ancestor values. Define
scaling as a unitless multiplier such as 0.9 wherever it participates in calc(),
and document the updated value format consistently.

| Four things the browser paints itself live outside the React tree and cannot be styled from an element inside it: the overscroll area, the document scrollbar, the region below short content, and native widget defaults such as autofill and date pickers. All four follow the root element's `color-scheme`. | ||
|
|
||
| The root theme element MUST carry a marker attribute, `data-rs-root`, that nested themes and portal re-injections do not, so the stylesheet can tell the theme that owns the page from a theme somewhere in the tree. `<html>` then derives its colour scheme from that element with `:has()`, in the shape Radix uses: a `:root:where(:has(...))` rule matching the marker plus the appearance attribute. This needs no JavaScript, writes nothing to `<html>`, and re-evaluates as soon as the pre-hydration script patches the attribute. `enableColorScheme` and the imperative `d.style.colorScheme` write are both deleted. The overscroll area follows `color-scheme` on its own, so it lands close to the theme background without a second mechanism. |

Add a browser target or fallback for :has().
The RFC accepts :has() for root color-scheme, but the package metadata only declares Node engines, not supported browsers. A supported browser without :has() will still patch theme attributes while native controls, scrollbars, autofill and date pickers keep the old scheme. Document :has() as a requirement or add an imperative fallback.

| Storage is read in two places, for two different jobs, and both are needed. The inline script reads it to patch the DOM before first paint, and exists only because server-rendered HTML cannot know a client-side value. React state reads it so the component knows the value, for `useTheme` consumers, re-renders and cross-tab sync. | ||
|
|
||
| React state uses `useSyncExternalStore`, the only primitive that reads storage on the first render under CSR without breaking hydration under SSR. Its server snapshot returns the seed, so the hydration render matches the server, and its client snapshot reads storage. Under CSR there is no hydration, so the first render, and therefore the first paint, is already correct with or without the script. Under SSR the script has already corrected the DOM and the post-hydration snapshot returns the same value, so nothing moves. Its subscribe function listens to the `storage` event, which covers cross-tab sync and replaces the two hand-rolled listeners. | ||
|
|
||
| Each setting MUST be stored under its own key holding a primitive rather than as one JSON blob, so snapshots compare by value and do not loop. |

| Phase 1 lays the token foundation. Wrap every `--rs-*` declaration in `:where()`, move spacing, effects and z-index off `:root` onto the theme selector, add `--rs-scaling`, the radius factor and full-radius variables and the surface tokens, give each accent its own selector, and add `sage` to the gray union. This phase is invisible to consumers, because the current provider writes `data-theme` to `<html>` and a `:where([data-theme])` rule matches it exactly as `:root` did. The widest-reaching and highest-risk change in the RFC therefore lands with no behavioural delta and can be verified on its own. | ||
|
|

| Phase 2 is the new `Theme`: the element-mounted architecture, `defaultValue` and `value`, `useTheme`, `useSyncExternalStore` persistence, the inline script, the `:has()` colour-scheme rule, `hasBackground` and `render`.

| Unit tests only, extending the existing suite. No browser-based testing is introduced; the repository has none today and standing it up is a separate project. | ||
|
|

| Coverage to add: | ||
|
|
||
| - Attribute output for every setting, at the root and in nested scopes | ||
| - Controlled versus uncontrolled precedence, per key, including that a controlled key ignores stored values and is never written | ||
| - `persist` in all three forms, and that `fontFamily` is not persistable in any of them | ||
| - `fontFamily` members merging independently, so a partial object leaves the other two members on their defaults and emits no custom property for them | ||
| - Storage reads under CSR, where the first render already carries the correct value | ||
| - Storage reads under SSR, where the server snapshot matches the hydration render and the script renders inside the theme element | ||
| - Cross-tab synchronisation through the `storage` event | ||
| - `system` and `auto` resolution, and `resolved` versus `value` | ||
| - The portal re-injector emitting inherited attributes and font custom properties | ||
| - `useTheme().root` reaching the root provider from inside a scope | ||
| - `useTheme` throwing outside a provider | ||
| - Script omission when every persistable setting is controlled or excluded | ||
|
|
||
| One known limitation: jsdom does not resolve custom properties from stylesheets, so token arithmetic cannot be asserted at this layer. Whether `scaling: '90%'` produces the right spacing, and whether a per-component `radius` leaks to descendants, are verified by review against the docs playground, which renders every component. Closing that gap is Future Work. |

| At most one element per document may carry the marker. A theme claims it when it finds no ancestor theme context; one that has no ancestor but does not own the page, an embedded widget or a micro-frontend, MUST pass `isRoot={false}`. Only the marker is exclusive, and a suppressed theme is otherwise unchanged: it still carries `data-theme`, so `styles/primitives/appearance.css` still gives its own subtree a `color-scheme`, and only the three document-level surfaces defer to the host. | ||
|
|
||
| If two elements do carry the marker with conflicting appearances, neither wins by position. Both rules match `:root` at equal specificity, so source order decides and `dark`, declared later, wins. That follows neither nesting nor mount order, and no selector can be made to, since sibling roots have no containment relationship to rank. The behaviour is documented rather than detected; the cost is a colour-scheme mismatch on three browser-painted surfaces, not a functional failure. |

Define document-wide root ownership across independent React roots.
The condition “no ancestor theme context” only checks one React tree. Two independent roots can both satisfy it and both set data-rs-root, despite the “at most one” requirement. If their appearances differ, the later stylesheet rule selects the document-wide color-scheme, even when the page owner uses the other appearance.
Require exactly one explicit document owner across independent roots, with all other roots using isRoot={false}, or define DOM-level arbitration and reassignment behavior.

Font variables need no re-emission, since the re-injected element carries the `rs-theme` class and a consumer rule on `.rs-theme` reaches it already. This is the standard fix and what Radix does in every portalling component, and it repairs the existing bug where a popover opened inside a scoped theme renders in the root's theme. | ||

| Component overrides do not go through context, so they cannot be re-emitted. Instead the override prop lives on the portalled sub-component itself: `Popover.Content`, `Select.Content`, `Dialog.Content`. Nothing then needs forwarding, and Apsara already uses the compound Root, Trigger and Content shape across these components. Within the re-injection, the component's own override MUST resolve after the inherited theme values, or the re-emitted theme value clobbers it. |

Carry scoped font variables across portal boundaries.
Line 298 permits consumers to scope --rs-font-* on a selector over one theme subtree. A portal re-injection outside that subtree will not inherit those variables. The statement on Line 282 is only true for a global .rs-theme rule.
Either re-emit resolved font variables through the portal context, or restrict the documented customization to selectors that also match the re-injected element. Otherwise portalled content can use different typography from the scoped theme.

In `@docs/rfcs/004-theme-improvements.md` around lines 282 - 284, Update the
portal theme re-injection described in the RFC to preserve scoped --rs-font-*
variables, either by re-emitting their resolved values through the portal
context or by restricting documented font customization to selectors matching
the re-injected element; ensure portalled content retains the scoped theme’s
typography.

1. Agreed, dropped the prop. Fonts are now just 2. Multiple roots / Right now it was depending on stylesheet ordering. I have added 3. Storage collision The shared-key case was feature where themes could stay in sync, which is what you'd want for several live examples on a docs page. Auto-generating key would create more problems, so persistence is now opt-in. Persistence is enabled if we pass |

Themeto mount design tokens on a theme element instead of writing attributes to<html>, so the root theme, a scoped subtree, and a portalled popover all become the same mechanism — collapsing today'sRoot/Scopedsplit, making the root server-renderable, and fixing scoped theming for the 13 portalling components where it is currently broken.appearance,accentColor,grayColor(withautopairing),radius,scaling,panelBackground,reducedMotion, and font families — behind adefaultValue/valuecontrolled-per-key API with opt-out persistence.radiusoverrides with element-only, non-compounding semantics (a component prop affects only that component; tree-level changes stay withTheme), via a shared cva variant and CSS module.:where()on every--rs-*declaration so consumer overrides win regardless of load order, a stable.rs-themeoverride target, spacing/effects/z-index moved off:rootso they become scopable, a factor-based radius scale, and a new surface token family behindpanelBackground.styleprop, audits all 10 items in [Theme] Enhance customization capabilities #578 with verdicts, and records the rejected options — component-level defaults, cursor tokens, atokensdeep-override prop, and keeping tokens on<html>— with rationale.
