NodlumeSunset Glow — a shadcn/ui theme for Tailwind v4
Warm coral and amber — a dashboard palette with a readable chart ramp.
Sunset Glow is tagged for dashboards because its brand roles are far enough apart to work as a chart ramp: a coral primary, an amber secondary, and a violet accent that all stay distinguishable in a bar chart and a legend. The neutrals are warm so the data does not sit on clinical gray.
The Startup Vibes pairing — a geometric heading over a clean sans body — keeps the product voice confident. Rounded corners and a soft shadow make KPI cards feel like tiles rather than table cells.
The eight color roles
Every shadcn/ui variable in the export derives from these eight. The dark values are not a second theme: they are the light roles with lightness moved, hue and saturation held, and each pair repaired until it meets its WCAG threshold.
| Role | Light | Dark |
|---|---|---|
| primary | #ff1aa1 | #ff29a7 |
| secondary | #ff1a6b | #ff1a6b |
| accent | #ff4a4a | #ff4a4a |
| background | #2d112c | #1e0b1d |
| surface | #3c173a | #30122e |
| text | #f6f3f6 | #f6f3f6 |
| muted | #b29ab1 | #372a36 |
| border | #523451 | #80517e |
Typography
Poppins for headings, Open Sans for body copy and ui-monospace for code, on a 16px base with a 1.25 modular ratio.
Shape and elevation
A 0.75rem base radius derives the --radius-sm/md/lg/xl steps; the base shadow derives the four-step elevation scale.
Extended tokens
Foregrounds, destructive, a five-step chart ramp and the sidebar set are derived from the roles — exactly the variables a Tailwind v4 shadcn/ui project reads.
The exported globals.css
This is the stylesheet the generator downloads for this preset — a Tailwind v4 @theme block that any shadcn/ui project can replace its own app/globals.css with. Open the preset in the generator to change anything, preview it on a full landing page, and add the derived .dark block or the W3C design-tokens export.

A preset is a starting point, not a decision. The shadcn/ui theme generator opens this one with every control live — swap the palette, try another of the 67 font pairings, tune the radius — and exports the result.
