Color Modes

  • ●24-bit true color — Full Catppuccin Mocha palette
  • ●256-color — Closest approximations (macOS Terminal.app)
  • ●No color — Set NO_COLOR=1 to disable all colors

Nerd Fonts

Dynamo auto-detects Nerd Font support. Override with:

bash
export DYNAMO_NERD_FONTS=1   # Force on
export DYNAMO_NERD_FONTS=0   # Force off (Unicode fallback)

Troubleshooting

  • ●Colors look wrong? — Check that your terminal supports true color
  • ●Icons missing? — Install a Nerd Font or set DYNAMO_NERD_FONTS=0
  • ●Unicode broken? — Ensure your terminal uses UTF-8 encoding
