-## RoadMap
-
-In order of percieved importance, but not in the order that I will get them done.
-
-- [ ] Make installable
-- [X] Create custom colours
-- [ ] Figure out how to create a Dark Mode
-- [ ] Create a minimal homepage option
-
-### Roadmap notes
-
-I would like for this to be installable, and once that is ready/working I will bind it as a release. 
-
-I would also like to have a couple colour themes so that I can use this exact theme for a few of the different sites that I would like to use it for, to make that work I will need different colour styles.
-
-Finally, and probably similar to the above, I want to have it set up so that I can have a dark mode for each of those colour schemes. I really prefer dark mode for anything that has a lot of text, and not having it for my own theme/website is probably annoying for some people.
