Chuchu ships with more than 400 terminal color themes sourced from the official Ghostty theme repository. You can preview any theme before applying it, and the change takes effect immediately in your active terminal session.
Where the themes come from
All themes are bundled with the app at install time — no internet connection is required to browse or switch themes. The collection is drawn from the same theme repository used by the Ghostty desktop terminal, so any theme you know from that ecosystem is available here.
Popular themes like Dracula, Catppuccin, and Tokyo Night are all included. Use the search field in the theme picker to find them quickly.
Change the theme
Open Settings
From the terminal screen or the server list, tap the settings icon to open Settings.
Select the General category
Tap General in the settings category bar at the top.
Open the theme picker
The current theme name is shown in the THEME section. Tap the theme name button to expand the picker list.
Search and scroll
Type in the search field to filter the list by name. Scroll through the results — each entry shows a small palette swatch strip so you can compare colors at a glance.
Tap to apply
Tap a theme name to select it. The theme is applied immediately to your active terminal session.
Preview a theme
Before committing to a theme, you can enable the preview panel by toggling show preview in the THEME section. The preview shows a simulated terminal output — a shell prompt, directory listing, error messages, and syntax-highlighted code — so you can see how the foreground, background, and palette colors look together.
Color scheme (light and dark mode)
Chuchu tracks the system color scheme and applies the correct foreground and background colors to match. When your device switches between light and dark mode, the terminal colors update automatically. The theme’s full 256-color palette and cursor color are included in each update.
Default theme
The default theme is Catppuccin Mocha, a dark theme with soft, warm tones. You can change it at any time in Settings and your choice is persisted across sessions.
