Filament Tailscale Theme

A light, Tailscale-console-inspired overlay theme for the Filament v5 admin panel.

A warm-neutral, airy light theme modeled on the Tailscale dashboard. It is an overlay — a plain stylesheet that loads on top of Filament's default theme and restyles the .fi-* components. There is no Tailwind build to set up and no theme to replace: install the package, publish the asset, register the plugin, and your panel takes on the Tailscale look.

Requirements

• PHP ^8.2
• Filament ^5.0

The full header look (the two-row contained header) assumes your panel uses ->topNavigation().

Installation

Install the package via Composer:

Then publish the theme's CSS asset:

[!NOTE] Re-run php artisan filament:assets after every update to the package so the published stylesheet stays in sync.

Usage

Register the plugin in your Panel provider:

That's all that is required — the theme is active on the next page load.

Configuration

Both options are fluent and optional:

What it changes

The theme restyles Filament's components for a calm, console-like feel:

• A contained two-row top header on a full-width warm-gray band — brand and user actions on the first row, navigation tabs on the second with a blue active underline and rounded-top hover. (Requires ->topNavigation().)
• A white content canvas with tightened page-header spacing.
• Minimalist, borderless tables: uppercase muted column heads, hairline row dividers, compact ~44px rows, a subtle warm hover — no zebra striping, no card, no shadow.
• Underline-style filter tabs instead of a segmented pill.
• Hairline inputs with a 1px indigo focus ring, flattened hairline form sections, and calm section-header typography.
• Solid indigo primary CTAs, white-with-hairline secondary buttons, and solid-red danger buttons.
• Quiet metadata badges and soft dropdown/modal elevation.
• An indigo-blue accent (#3b5bdb) over warm stone neutrals, tuned for Inter.

Dark mode

This is a light theme. Its styles are scoped to html:not(.dark), so in dark mode the panel intentionally falls back to Filament's default dark theme. With ->forceLightMode() left at its default, the panel opens in Light mode out of the box.

Tip

For the cleanest match to the Tailscale console:

• Use ->topNavigation() on your panel so the two-row header renders as designed.
• On your own resources, prefer color="gray" for metadata badges to match the quiet look. Leave status badges on their semantic colors so state still reads at a glance.

Customization

The theme is a plain-CSS overlay that targets .fi-* selectors and a set of --ts-* custom properties. It lives at:

Fork or extend it to tune spacing, neutrals, or the accent beyond what ->primaryColor() covers — no Tailwind compilation step is involved.
