sarnai

ᠰᠠᠷᠠᠨᠠᠢ

sarnai (ᠰᠠᠷᠠᠨᠠᠢ) means "rose" in Mongolian, my favourite colour, but most of all, the name of my beloved wife. She's the one who made the logo, helped find colors name, refined the palette to be more authentic.

🇲🇳 Philosophy

• Readability First: Good contrast for clarity, but soft enough for long sessions.
• Minimalist Spirit: Sticking with terminal 16 colors and some variants for bgs and fgs.
• Green Tints: Because I love green, and I'm tired of blues.
