README

A Vulcan-themed skin for Roundcube Webmail. Named after Surak, the father of Vulcan logic: "Logic is the beginning of wisdom."

The aesthetic evokes a Vulcan Science Academy terminal: clean geometric lines, burnt orange and steel blue on cool dark surfaces — desert heat meets cold logic. No scan-lines, no shimmer animations — logic prevails.

Based on the Elastic skin by The Roundcube Dev Team.

INSTALLATION

Copy the skin folder into skins/Surak within your Roundcube installation, then set in config/config.inc.php:

$config['skin'] = 'Surak';
$config['skin_logo'] = [
    '[dark]'       => 'skins/Surak/images/logo.svg',
    '[small]'      => 'skins/Surak/images/logo.svg',
    '[small-dark]' => 'skins/Surak/images/logo.svg',
    '*'            => 'skins/Surak/images/logo.svg',
];
