How would I style some table rows as light red, dark red, light green, and dark green?

One thing to note is that the stylesheet.css resource rules are applied to ALL tables in the project. If you only want this for a specific table, I highly recommend supplying a meta.domId property for your Table and supplying a unique value, then modifying the rule to only target this Table:

#myUniqueId div.tr-group:nth-child(odd) {
	filter: brightness(85%);
}
