Creating Themes

You can create themes for all available editors and terminal emulators using a single JSON file to define the colors. The file should be an array (even for one theme), with the following structure:

[
    {
        "theme_name_full": "Moonside",
        "theme_name_safe": "moonside",
        "color_bg_main": "#000000",
        "color_bg_alt1": "#080808",
        "color_bg_alt2": "#131313",
        "color_fg": "#ffffff",
        "color_linenr": "#9e5dc8",
        "color_select": "#5a1359",
        "color_type": "#f6f929",
        "color_accent": "#fd35fa",
        "color_string": "#ff6693",
        "color_boolean": "#fd9935",
        "color_variable": "#c67ff4",
        "color_number": "#aaef64",
        "color_comment": "#7ca454",
        "color_function": "#5e9aff"
    },
    {
        ...
    }
]

Value names are mostly self-explanatory, but here is a breakdown of what each field means:

Field Explanation
theme_name_full The full name of the theme that will appear in theme file documentation
theme_name_safe The value to use as the filename for the theme
color_bg_main Primary background color
color_bg_alt1 A separate background color to use for UI elements like file trees and tab bars
color_bg_alt2 A separate background color to use for UI elements like line numbers and gutters
color_fg The foreground color (all generic text)
color_linenr The color used for line numbers
color_select The color used for selecting a word or lines of text
color_type The color used for variable types (int, float, etc)
color_accent An "accent" color -- typically used for special cases (like current line number highlight or badge backgrounds)
color_string The color used for strings
color_boolean The color used for boolean values
color_variable The color used for variable instances and constants
color_number The color used for numeric values
color_comment The color used for code comments
