Inspired by brendanblackwood's material-monokai-syntax theme, my favorite Atom Syntax theme.
This theme uses sickill's vim-monokai as a base with its colors shifted to the Material Design color palette. It is recommended that you use a matching terminal theme.
NOTE: A terminal that supports true colors is strongly recommended. There is a 256 color fallback, but it doesn't look that great.
Install this color scheme using your preferred Vim plugin manager, then add the following to your .vimrc file:
set background=dark
set termguicolors
colorscheme material-monokai
Enable italic comments (terminal permitting) by adding the following to your .vimrc file:
let g:materialmonokai_italic=1
Includes a matching Airline theme. To activate it, add the following to your .vimrc file:
let g:airline_theme='materialmonokai'
