UniWind theme variables
Theme variables have exactly one working form, and the two obvious ones fail silently:
light-dark()inside@themecompiles to#000000.- A media query plus a
.darkselector flattens to one resolver per name, so whichever block is written last becomes the only theme.
The form that works is @layer theme → :root → @variant light / @variant dark, and every variable must appear in both blocks. One present in a single block resolves to black in the theme that is missing it.
src/global.css generates both blocks from one key list: light is the default and dark is a remap.
