About Tokyo Night

Tokyo Night

Preview in vscode.dev

A clean Visual Studio Code theme that celebrates the lights of Downtown Tokyo at night.

Note: Many UI elements are intentionally low contrast so as not to distract. I can provide customization settings similar to what is shown further down this page to anyone who needs specific text brightened.

Customization Settings Examples

Higher Contrast Settings

The below can by no means officially represent high contrast but they may serve as a starting point. This assumes that the darker Tokyo Night version is being used.

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "[Tokyo Night]": {
        "foreground": "#959cbd",
        "panelTitle.activeBorder": "#3d59a1",
        "panelTitle.activeForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "panelTitle.inactiveForeground": "#959cbd",
        "tab.activeForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "tab.inactiveForeground": "#959cbd",
        "breadcrumb.foreground": "#959cbd",
        "breadcrumb.focusForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "breadcrumb.activeSelectionForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "statusBar.foreground": "#bdc7f0",
        "list.focusForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "list.hoverForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "list.activeSelectionForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "list.inactiveSelectionForeground": "#bdc7f0",
        "list.inactiveSelectionBackground": "#202330",
        "sideBar.foreground": "#959cbd",
        "dropdown.foreground": "#959cbd",
        "menu.foreground":"#bdc7f0",
        "menubar.selectionForeground":"#bdc7f0",
        "input.foreground": "#959cbd",
        "input.placeholderForeground": "#959cbd",
        "activityBar.foreground": "#bdc7f0",
        "activityBar.inactiveForeground": "#787c99",
        "gitDecoration.ignoredResourceForeground": "#696d87",
    },
}
Brightening Codelens text

I prefer my Codelens text fade into the background unless hovered over, but if you'd like a higher contrast, add this to your settings.json:

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "[Tokyo Night]": { // or "[Tokyo Night Storm]"
        "editorCodeLens.foreground": "#7982a9", // Preferred hex color
    }
}
Window Active and Inactive borders (vscode 1.40.0)

macOS dark-mode doesn't play well with these two theme mods so I've chosen to darken them as much as I can to fix the gray border issue on my side. Set them however you like using:

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "[Tokyo Night]": { // or "[Tokyo Night Storm]"
        "window.activeBorder": "#ff0000",
        "window.inactiveBorder":"#0000ff"
    }
}
```…
