   GurukripaSteno — one theme for the home site, login, admin and candidate area.
   Palette is taken 1:1 from the home page: deep purple surfaces, lime / coral / cyan accents.
   Built on Bootstrap 5.3 dark mode (html[data-bs-theme="dark"]); the few screens that are
   deliberately "paper" (exam screens, MS Word shell, reports) set data-bs-theme="light" on their wrapper.
