About Darcula Theme

Darcula

A theme extension for Visual Studio Code based on Darcula theme from Jetbrains IDEs.

Changelog

See CHANGELOG.md

Description

Mainly focused on HTML5 / CSS / JS (TS) development.
Not exactly same with the theme from Jetbrains IDE. There are few modifications to match look and feel with VS Code IDE.
Follows common textmate tokens (such as entity.name.type, entity.name.function, variable.property...) so try it on any languages and report issues on the GitHub repo.
Any suggestions/contributions are welcomed!

Setting

When installation completes, select Darcula as your color theme (Preferences → Workbench: Color Theme → Darcula)

Customizing

If you want to customize on top of this theme, use vscode's color customization feature.
(Related Issue: #9, #15)
