A monochrome terminal theme for a JavaScript data grid

The terminal theme strips colour down to a single hue on a dark background, rendering text, borders and status indicators as shades of one phosphor green (or amber, or white, depending on the palette chosen) rather than a mixed colour scale. Reach for it when a Lattice Grid instance sits inside a console-style tool, a log viewer, or any interface built to evoke a command-line session, where a conventional light-and-shade UI theme would clash with the surrounding chrome. Row state, sort direction and validation errors are still legible: instead of red and green, the theme encodes them as brightness steps, so a flagged row sits at full intensity while a muted or disabled one recedes toward the background. Set theme: 'terminal' to switch a grid over; the option takes effect immediately and does not require re-mounting the grid or reloading its data.

Because every element draws from one hue, the theme keeps contrast ratios stable across the interface: headers, focus rings and hover states each get their own brightness step, so the relationships between them hold even when a display’s saturation changes. Fonts render monospaced by default, matching a terminal-style layout and keeping numeric columns aligned without extra width padding. Switching themes is a style change only; row data, sort order and column widths carry over unaffected.

How do I make a JavaScript data grid look like a terminal?

Set the theme option to 'terminal' when creating the grid, or apply it later with the same property. The theme swaps colours and fonts for a single-hue, monospaced palette while leaving row data, sorting and column layout untouched, so it can be toggled alongside other themes without rebuilding the grid.
