Claro is the default admin User Interface (UI) in Drupal 10. The latest blog post published by Evolving Web throws light on Claro. Franz Vanderlinde, a Solutions Architect at Evolving Web, writes the article.

Franz, heaps of praise on the new default admin theme. According to him, users will shift to the latest Drupal version once they experience Claro!

It replaces the earlier one called Seven. Seven had only minor updates since its deployment in 2009.

Claro is the Spanish equivalent of ‘clear.’ According to the author, the name truly fits the new theme. The post says Claro is a breath of fresh air to anyone spending time in the Drupal admin UI.

Claro was built as part of the Drupal Admin UI & Javascript Modernization initiative. It was built using feedback from an admin UX Study. It was initially introduced as an experimental version in Drupal 8.8. Later, it achieved stability in April 2022 and is now the default admin theme in Drupal 10.

The post cites the following as Claro’s salient features:

Improved Readability
A modern, accessible color palette
Redesigned buttons and dropdowns
Consistent focus styles
Minimalist iconography
Spacious design and,
Easier navigation.
