Helix themes inspired by Zenbones &
Alabaster. Uses Radix Colors.
- Ideas from alabaster.
- Comments should stand out.
- Use color sparingly. The rules should be simple.
- avoid font variants where possible.
- Alabaster essentially only higlights comments/constants and strings.
- It doesn't highlight keywords (reserved words) or types. (which to be fair isn't really an issue for
clojure)
- Yo doesn't go quite as far on this point.
- Instead it takes the minimal zenbones approach to highlight the remaining code.
- subtle colors & contrast.
- vibrant colors are left for diagnostics.
- The default yo themes use the following:
- Green for strings (same as alabaster)
- Purple for constant (same as alabaster)
- Blue for info (comments & LSP info/hints)
- Red/Amber LSP error/warnings
- Gray/Bronze Everything else zenbones style
- I'm not a designer and don't like my chances of making something look good by
tweaking colors so instead i'll let the pros handle it.
- Radix Colors are very well deisgned. with clear instructions for
how to apply them.
- Designed for automatic light/dark mode.
- Variants.
- It should be straightforward to use helix theme inheritance to swap out the
default color palette with other radix color combinations without losing the
principles of the theme. (see the berry variant)
- If you find languages that aren't highlighted nicely or have a suggestion for
improvements please open an issue.
- Update colors to radix colors 3.0
- Add a new default theme. Move the old default to yo_sand with some color tweaks
