Configuration

There is no need to call setup if you are ok with the defaults (low contrast).

require("leaf").setup({
    underlineStyle = "underline",
    commentStyle = "italic",
    functionStyle = "NONE",
    keywordStyle = "italic",
    statementStyle = "bold",
    typeStyle = "NONE",
    variablebuiltinStyle = "italic",
    transparent = false,
    colors = {},
    overrides = {},
    theme = "auto", -- default, based on vim.o.background, alternatives: "light", "dark"
    contrast = "low", -- default, alternatives: "medium", "high"
})

-- setup must be called before loading
vim.cmd("colorscheme leaf")

Customize colors

You can change individual colors of leaf.nvim themes by passing a table of colors to setup. Supported keywords can be found here and the theme's colors are defined here. For example, for comments matching the theme's dark green color you can call setup with:

require("leaf").setup({
    colors = { bg3 = "#59795f" },
})

You can achieve the same result by accessing the colors defined for leaf.nvim:

local leaf_colors = require("leaf.colors").setup()

require("leaf").setup({
    colors = { bg3 = leaf_colors.leaf_green_3 },
})

Customize highlight groups

With the overrides keyword you can customize hl-groups. Supported keywords are fg, bg, style, guisp and link.

require("leaf").setup({
    overrides = {
        Normal = { fg = "black", bg = "#FFFFFF" },
        Comment = { style = "italic" },
        TelescopeBorder = { link = "Normal" },
    },
})

Acknowledgements

• Almost all colors are taken from the Leaf KDE Plasma Theme by @qewer33. I just ported the konsole colors to Neovim and kitty.
• I used kanagawa.nvim by @rebelot as a template, since this is the first theme I made for Neovim.
