## About the changes
Implements custom root roles, encompassing a lot of different areas of
the project, and slightly refactoring the current roles logic. It
includes quite a clean up.
This feature itself is behind a flag: `customRootRoles`
This feature covers root roles in:
- Users;
- Service Accounts;
- Groups;
Apologies in advance. I may have gotten a bit carried away 🙈
### Roles
We now have a new admin tab called "Roles" where we can see all root
roles and manage custom ones. We are not allowed to edit or remove
*predefined* roles.
This meant slightly pushing away the existing roles to `project-roles`
instead. One idea we want to explore in the future is to unify both
types of roles in the UI instead of having 2 separate tabs. This
includes modernizing project roles to fit more into our current design
and decisions.
Hovering the permissions cell expands detailed information about the
role:
### Create and edit role
Here's how the role form looks like (create / edit):
Here I categorized permissions so it's easier to visualize and manage
from a UX perspective.
I'm using the same endpoint as before. I tried to unify the logic and
get rid of the `projectRole` specific hooks. What distinguishes custom
root roles from custom project roles is the extra `root-custom` type we
see on the payload. By default we assume `custom` (custom project role)
instead, which should help in terms of backwards compatibility.
### Delete role
When we delete a custom role we try to help the end user make an
informed decision by listing all the entities which currently use this
custom root role:
~~As mentioned in the screenshot, when deleting a custom role, we demote
all entities associated with it to the predefined `Viewer` role.~~
**EDIT**: Apparently we currently block this from the API
(access-service deleteRole) with a message:
What should the correct behavior be?
### Role selector
I added a new easy-to-use role selector component that is present in:
- Users
- Service Accounts
- Groups
### Role description
I also added a new role description component that you can see below the
dropdown in the selector component, but it's also used to better
describe each role in the respective tables:
I'm not listing all the permissions of predefined roles. Those simply
show the description in the tooltip:
### Role badge
Groups is a bit different, since it uses a list of cards, so I added yet
another component - Role badge:
I'm using this same component on the profile tab:
## Discussion points
- Are we being defensive enough with the use of the flag? Should we
cover more?
- Are we breaking backwards compatibility in any way?
- What should we do when removing a role? Block or demote?
- Maybe some existing permission-related issues will surface with this
change: Are we being specific enough with our permissions? A lot of
places are simply checking for `ADMIN`;
- We may want to get rid of the API roles coupling we have with the
users and SAs and instead use the new hooks (e.g. `useRoles`)
explicitly;
- We should update the docs;
- Maybe we could allow the user to add a custom role directly from the
role selector component;

## About the changes
Refactoring the colors for the light theme to be much easier to continue
with dark mode
This is the first step to finish dark mode
https://linear.app/unleash/project/[low][s][alpha]-dark-mode-in-unleash-admin-ui-31b407d13c4b/1
This PR uses `main-theme` as a placeholder for `dark-theme` for now due
to the new changes. Still need to set the correct values here.

## About the changes
Add warnings when we detect something might be wrong with the customer
configuration, in particular with regard to variants configuration
## Rationale
Moving from variants per feature to variants per environment will allow
users to have fine-grained permissions and more control over variants on
different environments: #2254
But because this requires an additional step of copying variants to
other environments, we identified the potential risk of users forgetting
to follow this step. To keep them informed about this, we're introducing
a warning sign after a toggle is enabled when we detect that:
1. The environment is enabled without variants
2. Other enabled environments have variants
This situation would be a problem if you rely on `getVariant` method
from the SDK, because without variants you'll receive the default
variant. Probably, not what you'd expect after enabling the toggle, but
there are situations where this might be correct. Because of the latter,
we thought that adding a warning and letting the user handle the
situation was the best solution.

Fixes an issue where the `HtmlTooltip` arrow would no longer work after
a regression included with https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/2891
Also adds the arrow prop to most usages of the tooltip to keep
consistency.
