## Base16 color scheme introduction

Base16 ( https://github.com/chriskempson/base16 ) was originally intended to solve the problem of inconsistent color schemes in code editors, but its application goes far beyond that. This scheme is not only suitable for code editors, but also for the design of websites and other user interfaces. By using the Base16 color scheme, you can improve the user experience and make your website look more professional and consistent.

In Base16, each color has a specific purpose and meaning. For example, a combination of dark and light colors can be used for foreground and background, while different colors can be used to represent different types of syntax elements such as variables, operators, keywords, etc. This consistent color scheme helps improve the readability and maintainability of the code.

## Motivation

As mentioned above, Base16 is not only suitable for code editors, but also for the design of websites and other user interfaces. Therefore, I would like to try to apply Base16 to the Bootstrap framework to implement a tool for quickly changing the theme color scheme.

## function

- After installation, a selected pair of built-in color schemes will be automatically applied.
- Simple and easy to customize the colors of various sections of a page, with a live preview.
- You can set the automatic switching color mode. (Switch to dark mode at night, light mode in the morning)
- A color mode switch button is provided to enable users to choose the mode that suits them.
- Built-in code highlighting, so you can enjoy the same code highlighting as the current color scheme without additional plugins

## Compatibility

Only the Flatboard 3 initial theme was tested.

Main Improvements

Use of the Plugin class for hooks
- Checking the validity of hooks with

Plugin::isValidHook()

Plugin::getPluginDBPath()

to access the plugin data file
- This approach is more secure and complies with Flatboard standards

Improved error handling
- Added try/catch blocks to capture exceptions
- Errors are now handled properly and displayed to the user

Enhanced security

- More robust user input checking
- Escaping Data to prevent XSS attacks

Specific changes
- Updated plugin version to 1.0.2 to reflect improvements
- Added checks before hook execution with

Plugin::isValidHook()

- Used the

Plugin::getPluginDBPath()

method to identify the plugin data file
- Improved error handling with try/catch blocks

Thanks for refining the plugin! Your security enhancements are especially valuable. 👍👍👍

Feel free to cherry-pick anything useful for Flatboard 5.

I haven't yet refined the plugin part on Flatboard 5, but know that I have simplified the configuration part with the automatic generation of form fields, which will be defined by the developer.

Plugin Exemple:

{
    "name": "ExamplePlugin",
    "description": "Plugin de test",
