VeluNext

A modern visual theme for ERPNext/Frappe — branding, colors, typography, and micro-interactions applied to the Desk, the login screen, and the Customer Portal, while staying fully compatible with core (no native Frappe/ERPNext file is modified).

Built by NovaDX for its ERPNext instances.

Current version: 1.1.0

Compatibility: Frappe 16.x / ERPNext 16.x (built and tested against Frappe 16.31.0 / ERPNext 16.32.1)

Features

Desk

• Sidebar, forms, lists, checkboxes, dashboards, and charts consistently recolored to the brand palette, without touching any native file (everything injected via the app's own CSS/JS).
• Module icons on the Home screen shown as plain brand-colored glyphs (no background), revealing the solid colored square + white icon on hover.
• Donut/pie charts (e.g. Accounts Receivable Ageing) using a purple→amber gradient consistent with the brand, keeping red on the most critical bucket as a deliberate warning signal.
• Navbar language switcher (flag/code + language name), reusing Frappe's native mechanism (User.language) without introducing any new capability.
• Navbar search field with a visible border and a brand-colored icon.
• Light/dark mode toggle, persisted per user (Frappe's native mechanism).
• Full dark mode support across every custom component.

Login / Authentication

• Centered, modern login card with styled inputs and buttons.
• Favicon and "Theme Powered by NovaDX" credit.

Customer Portal

• Portal sidebar, listing cards, status badges, and forms (e.g. ticket creation) redesigned.
• Navigation icons injected dynamically per route.
• "Theme Powered by NovaDX" footer on portal pages.

Development

• Working branch: develop. Changes only reach main when a development phase is finished.
• Whenever a native color/icon needs changing, the goal is to reuse an existing Frappe mechanism (CSS variables, content: url(), hooks) instead of patching core files — so bench update never wipes out the theme.
