Hi there! Your friendly neighborhood Tumblr web developer here. You may have recently noticed that we’re making some changes around the site. Some of you might have even gotten the chance to play around with a beta version of our site on desktop. We may be biased, but we think it’s pretty neat!

However, we know that a lot of you don’t just use Tumblr—especially on your non-mobile devices. You use Tumblr and something. Tumblr and XKit, Tumblr and Tumblr Savior, Tumblr and all kinds of things, all of them made and maintained by passionate Tumblr users. We don’t want that to go away when we roll out the new changes to everybody.

We’ll be rolling out these changes within the next couple of months, aiming to be fully out by the end of March. So, consider this an olive branch–we don’t want this to surprise anyone, and we want to help everyone be ready.

Some of you are already digging into the beta site, poking at its gears, and trying to make it play along nicely with browser extensions. We want to make that at least somewhat easier. We’ve already built in one hook that lets you access consistent and meaningful CSS class names. Hopefully, that’s enough to enable some DOM manipulation and restyling. You can take a look at some documentation for it here.

It might not be enough for everything, though. If it’s not, we want to know. You can let us know via this very blog if you wish. Or drop by our docs on Github and leave an issue. We can’t make any guarantees, except that we’re listening.

All the best,

The Core Web Team @ Tumblr
