Hey Discourse Meta!

Component 2 is a couple of minor edits and tweaks to [Rainbow Theme](https://meta.discourse.org/t/rainbow-a-colorful-theme-for-discourse/177978) while sharing the same UI; CSS only

I’m trying this theme but don’t see this menu available. Is this another component?

No, back when I made the theme it was included in the original code. I tried running it again and I have the same problem as you do. I’m pretty sure when I made it the hamburger menu was in the default theme for Discourse and so I had just changed a couple of colors. I haven’t been on the website in three years and it looks like it has been removed. Admittedly, I have very little experience with Discourse so I don’t know how I would be able to re-implement it, but best of luck!

Hi @Stellar_G 🙂

If this is no longer functional with the latest Discourse UI should I add the #deprecated tag, or are you considering updating it?
