Install omarchy-chromium on Omarchy
Omarchy Chromium was a fork of the Chromium web browser maintained specifically to give it live theme-switching support before upstream Chromium had that capability via policy-based refreshes. It behaved like a normal Chromium-based browser day to day, just with Omarchy's theme integration built in. The project has since been archived and marked read-only because the upstream Chromium project absorbed the underlying fix, making the fork unnecessary.
