Minimal Dark is a personalized and customizable minimal theme for the new Steam interface (New UI).
I started from the basic Steam skin using the development tool (DevTools) as well as notepad++.
All the sources and tools I used are at the bottom of the description.
I am neither a coder nor a developer, I have some knowledge after several years of practice and I do this in my free time when I have it.
Be understanding if you encounter any bugs.
I created a minimal topbar to best optimize the space compared to the vanilla base.
The home and collection button are now hidden to minimize the space taken up (they are accessible from the top bar).
In Steam settings I recommend setting the library size to Medium.
Steam Settings > Library > Display size for library interface elements > Medium
I'm not a fan of heavy interfaces with "uncoordinated" colors. So I did my best to have a theme with matching colorimetry. In building the skin, I defined a function on many elements that injects the selected color code on the entire skin.
by default, whether you are on w10 or w11, the color of Steam will be the one you have chosen in Windows, but you can always use another color by clicking on the color selector.
How change the skin color ?
Open Steam settings go to Themes and select an custom accent.
Note: the accent color does not apply on the webkit. So I set the store color with Steam's default color (the light blue #1a9fff).
Some profiles have neon lights around the headers, I removed them by default.
If you want to remove this, open webkit.css and remove lines 56 to 61
Thanks Shiina for the base of the webkit
