Getting started
From the project's README ("basic usage"):
before you do anything, it's recommended to back up your op-1 (just in case)! enter disk mode and copy everything to a folder on your computer.
clone this repository (git clone https://github.com/nanobot567/op1-glitter).
snag the latest op-1 original firmware package from teenage engineering's website, and drop it in the same directory as op1-glitter.py.
locate the theme.json file you would like to apply (there are some examples in examples/!) and move it to the same folder.
run python3 op1-glitter.py [.json file] [firmware file name].
your new firmware should be created! by default the new file name is [original filename]-[theme name].op1.
update to the new firmware on your op-1. to do this, enter te-boot (shut off your op-1, hold down the COM key while turning it back on), press 1 to enter firmware upgrade mode, and follow the instructions displayed on screen.
after your op-1 reboots, you should now have the new color theme!!
if your op-1 crashes, enter te-boot again and instead copy the original firmware to the firmware upload disk to revert.
