Pre-flight checks
Problem
If we got to a media's page, all are the same, boring color.
The only way we can distinguish between 2 media works is by looking at their name, or scrolling up to look at their artwork.
Both of these actions involve shifting are gaze. Not only that, it is also bad for communicating if we're at a media page, or a generic one.
More importantly, the artwork of the media often does not match the “Monet” theme (using a theme pallet of colors extracted from an image). The whole point of Monet theming is that the artwork matches with the backgrounds. This is the same reason YouTube and other media players have ambient modes.
Proposed solution
By extracting the media colors from the artwork (cover, banner), we could generate another color pallet that would be used with the media's page.
Alternatives considered
- Using it however it currently is
- Using alternative AniList client where the feature exists—for example, AniHyou
