What are themes?
A theme changes the appearance of Firefox, such as the color scheme and background image of the toolbars. The color scheme of menus and built-in pages will follow, based on whether the text color on your toolbar is light or dark. Some websites also will follow the same color scheme.
Firefox comes with a default System theme and optional Colorways, Light, Dark, and Alpenglow themes, but you can always install new themes.
