ThunderbirdBoltThemeinto platform dynamic colors; K-9 Mail keeps its current theme.ColorSchemeinto Bolt'sThemeColorSchemewhile retaining Bolt's additional semantic colors.values-v31, so legacy surfaces and Compose screens use the same wallpaper-derived palette.Screen Shots
Not included because the palette is generated at runtime from the device wallpaper and no Android 12+ emulator/device is available in the current environment.
Testing
Before rebasing, the production implementation passed:
:components:ui:bolt:compileAndroidMain:app-thunderbird:compileFossDebugKotlin:app-thunderbird:processFossDebugResourcesfossReleasebuild and release lint (0 lint errors)After rebasing onto the latest
mainand adding the mapping test:git diff --checkpassed../gradlew :components:ui:bolt:jvmTest :components:ui:bolt:spotlessCheck :app-thunderbird:compileFossDebugKotlin :app-thunderbird:processFossDebugResources --no-daemonwas attempted, but Gradle stopped during configuration because Google Maven returned HTTP 404 for the upstream-pinnedcom.android.application:9.2.1plugin. No project task executed in that attempt.Risks / Trade-offs
info,success, andwarningroles have no Material dynamic equivalents, so the existing Thunderbird values are retained.AI Disclosure
