Description: This is a recreation of the system 9 themes made by apple, avaliable in the 5 main flavors, Grape/Default, Blueberry, Strawberry, Key Lime and Tangerine
9Great start on this, but a couple things I noticed: the colors in the kvconfig file seem to be the same in each theme even though some should be different (e.g. selection background colors). Also, unfocused selection background and foreground (for icons, but probably other stuff) are both black, which does not seem like a good choice to me.
There might be other things I'm not thinking of. You should consider making a git repo so I (or other people) can report bugs or submit pull requests.
Not the author, but the best one to use currently is probably the platinum aurorae theme by niels (note that I made a modded version of this with a more old-school titlebar height that also follows the color-scheme). These days I'm mostly using the kde2 kdecoration2 plugin though (https://github.com/repos-holder/kdecoration2-kde2)
I just did another one called "rhodium" that you might want to check out. It's really not ideal, but it might be the closest we can actually get to platinum using the aurorae theme engine.

Which Aurorae do you recommend to use with your Kvantum theme?

Thank you for your answer! I like your modded titlebar as well, thanks!

Thank you very much for remembering my question. I have just commented on "rhodium".
10 That's something I've been really looking forward to! Thank you very much!
OMG! So psyched to check this out!
