About Quiet Light for VSC
Quiet Light for VSC
Quiet Light for VSC is a light, peaceful theme, ported to Visual Studio Code by me, the designer of the original Quiet Light theme for MacRabbit's Espresso text editor on macOS.

When I launched Visual Studio Code for the first time I was surprised and delighted to find that my Quiet Light theme was included by default. However, it was a little rough around the edges (I didn't have anything to do with the Textmate port of the theme), and thus Quiet Light for VSC was born.
I hope you enjoy working by Quiet Light! Please let me know if you run across any problems or have any suggestions to make it better (or alternately submit a pull request on GitHub).
