Thank you very much for the awesome work. I'm already using the shell engine and it looks really great. I really only noticed one minor thing: the dropdown in the quick settings have default color.

Thank you for your kind words! The issue you described here is the first item in issues list, I'll try to fix it as soon as I have some free time this week.

Perfect. Appreciate it a lot. Sorry for my redundant comment.

Shell doesn't support @var_name so a function for converting each @var_name to the hex/rgb value is needed since @ vars are LibAdwaita only

Fixed in 1a5b1f4. We already have a function to handle that, it was just buggy.
