Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Each theme only supports 8 colours. This is an issue for users with more than 8 courses on their timetables as some courses will have duplicate colours.
Describe the solution you'd like
Themes should comprise more than 8 colours.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Possible extension is to support custom themes where users can add their own colours. Existing themes can be inherited/extended into custom themes.
Additional context
I just wish my timetable will stop gaslighting me with duplicate colours. :')
