Month: 2024-10 | Focus: Theming feature delivery for fyne-io/fyne with system theme fallback. Implemented user-defined themes via JSON with robust fallback to system/default themes. Added fromJSONWithFallback, enabled loading themes from JSON files, and ensured that if a custom theme delegates to DefaultTheme or if a file is missing/invalid, system/default themes are applied. This improves user customization while preserving reliable defaults and reduces UI risk due to malformed theme data.
