GDEX: UI Theming
CSS theming system for building polished trading interfaces. Covers dark/light mode, trading-specific color semantics (long/short/PnL), responsive layouts, and Tailwind CSS integration.
When to Use
- Setting up dark/light mode for a trading app
- Defining trading-specific color semantics (buy/sell, PnL, chains)
- Configuring responsive breakpoints for trading layouts
- Extending Tailwind CSS with trading theme tokens
CSS Custom Properties
Define a base theme using CSS variables. Trading UIs need specialized color semantics beyond generic UI:
/* styles/theme.css */
:root {
/* Brand */
--color-brand: #3B82F6;
--color-brand-hover: #2563EB;
/* Trading — Long / Short */
--color-long: #22C55E;
--color-long-bg: #22C55E1A;
--color-short: #EF4444;
--color-short-bg: #EF44441A;
/* PnL */
--color-pnl-positive: #22C55E;
--color-pnl-negative: #EF4444;
--color-pnl-neutral: #6B7280;
/* Order Status */
--color-status-filled: #22C55E;
--color-status-pending: #F59E0B;
--color-status-cancelled: #6B7280;
--color-status-failed: #EF4444;
/* Chain Colors */
--color-chain-solana: #9945FF;
--color-chain-ethereum: #627EEA;
--color-chain-base: #0052FF;
--color-chain-arbitrum: #2D374B;
--color-chain-bsc: #F0B90B;
--color-chain-sui: #4DA2FF;
--color-chain-optimism: #FF0420;
/* Surfaces (light mode) */
--bg-primary: #FFFFFF;
--bg-secondary: #F9FAFB;
--bg-tertiary: #F3F4F6;
--bg-card: #FFFFFF;
--bg-input: #F9FAFB;
--border-primary: #E5E7EB;
--border-secondary: #D1D5DB;
/* Text (light mode) */
--text-primary: #111827;
--text-secondary: #6B7280;
--text-tertiary: #9CA3AF;
--text-on-brand: #FFFFFF;
/* Typography */
--font-sans: 'Inter', system-ui, -apple-system, sans-serif;
--font-mono: 'JetBrains Mono', 'Fira Code', monospace;
/* Spacing */
--radius-sm: 6px;
--radius-md: 8px;
--radius-lg: 12px;
--radius-full: 9999px;
}
/* Dark Mode */
[data-theme='dark'], .dark {
--bg-primary: #0F1117;
--bg-secondary: #1A1D28;
--bg-tertiary: #252836;
--bg-card: #1A1D28;
--bg-input: #252836;
--border-primary: #2D3348;
--border-secondary: #3D4462;
--text-primary: #F9FAFB;
--text-secondary: #9CA3AF;
--text-tertiary: #6B7280;
}
Dark / Light Mode Toggle
// components/ThemeToggle.tsx
'use client';
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
export function ThemeToggle() {
const [dark, setDark] = useState(false);
useEffect(() => {
const saved = localStorage.getItem('gdex-theme');
const prefersDark = window.matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches;
setDark(saved ? saved === 'dark' : prefersDark);
}, []);
useEffect(() => {
document.documentElement.setAttribute('data-theme', dark ? 'dark' : 'light');
document.documentElement.classList.toggle('dark', dark);
localStorage.setItem('gdex-theme', dark ? 'dark' : 'light');
}, [dark]);
return (
<button onClick={() => setDark(!dark)}
className="p-2 rounded-lg border border-[var(--border-primary)] hover:bg-[var(--bg-tertiary)]">
{dark ? '☀️' : '🌙'}
</button>
);
}
Tailwind CSS Configuration
Extend Tailwind with GDEX trading theme tokens:
// tailwind.config.ts
import type { Config } from 'tailwindcss';
const config: Config = {
darkMode: 'class',
content: ['./src/**/*.{ts,tsx}', './app/**/*.{ts,tsx}'],
theme: {
extend: {
colors: {
brand: 'var(--color-brand)',
'brand-hover': 'var(--color-brand-hover)',
long: 'var(--color-long)',
'long-bg': 'var(--color-long-bg)',
short: 'var(--color-short)',
'short-bg': 'var(--color-short-bg)',
'pnl-positive': 'var(--color-pnl-positive)',
'pnl-negative': 'var(--color-pnl-negative)',
'pnl-neutral': 'var(--color-pnl-neutral)',
'surface-primary': 'var(--bg-primary)',
'surface-secondary': 'var(--bg-secondary)',
'surface-card': 'var(--bg-card)',
},
fontFamily: {
sans: ['var(--font-sans)'],
mono: ['var(--font-mono)'],
},
borderRadius: {
sm: 'var(--radius-sm)',
md: 'var(--radius-md)',
lg: 'var(--radius-lg)',
},
},
},
};
export default config;
Usage in Components
{/* Trading colors via Tailwind */}
<span className="text-long">+$420.69</span> {/* green — long position / profit */}
<span className="text-short">-$69.42</span> {/* red — short position / loss */}
<div className="bg-long-bg p-2">Long highlight</div>
<div className="bg-surface-card border border-[var(--border-primary)]">Card</div>
Responsive Breakpoints
Trading UIs have unique layout needs — the primary trading view should maximize horizontal space:
/* Trading layout breakpoints */
@media (min-width: 768px) {
/* Tablet: stack chart above order form */
.trading-layout { grid-template-columns: 1fr; }
}
@media (min-width: 1024px) {
/* Desktop: chart + order form side by side */
.trading-layout { grid-template-columns: 1fr 360px; }
}
@media (min-width: 1440px) {
/* Wide: chart + orderbook + order form */
.trading-layout { grid-template-columns: 280px 1fr 360px; }
}
{/* Responsive trading grid */}
<div className="grid grid-cols-1 lg:grid-cols-[1fr_360px] xl:grid-cols-[280px_1fr_360px] gap-4">
<aside className="hidden xl:block">{/* Orderbook */}</aside>
<main>{/* Chart + Positions */}</main>
<aside>{/* Order Form */}</aside>
</div>
Component Styling Patterns
Trading Buttons
{/* Long / Short buttons */}
<button className="w-full py-3 rounded-lg font-bold text-white bg-long hover:opacity-90">
Long BTC
</button>
<button className="w-full py-3 rounded-lg font-bold text-white bg-short hover:opacity-90">
Short BTC
</button>
PnL with Color
function PnL({ value }: { value: number }) {
const color = value > 0 ? 'text-pnl-positive' : value < 0 ? 'text-pnl-negative' : 'text-pnl-neutral';
const sign = value > 0 ? '+' : '';
return <span className={`font-mono font-bold ${color}`}>{sign}${value.toFixed(2)}</span>;
}
Chain Badge
const CHAIN_COLORS: Record<string, string> = {
solana: 'var(--color-chain-solana)',
ethereum: 'var(--color-chain-ethereum)',
base: 'var(--color-chain-base)',
arbitrum: 'var(--color-chain-arbitrum)',
bsc: 'var(--color-chain-bsc)',
sui: 'var(--color-chain-sui)',
};
function ChainBadge({ chain }: { chain: string }) {
return (
<span className="px-2 py-0.5 rounded-full text-xs font-medium text-white"
style={{ backgroundColor: CHAIN_COLORS[chain] ?? '#6B7280' }}>
{chain}
</span>
);
}
