Is this the ultimate color scheme?
Not that one
molokai is the best theme
Shit theme shit editor
Oh yeah, solarized looks really well. But I try to restrict myself to light colorschemes because of eyesight reasons. I use PaperColor for vim.
Solarized is nice if you choose the colors, but no good for compatibility since it breaks away from the standard 16 colors.
Here's one I came up with that tries to stay compatible while being less garish. Unfortunately many programs rely on the colors being garish and do things like use bright yellow text on a bright blue background that fail under any scheme that tries to keep all colors at a similar luminance.
COLOR HEX RGB

Black #111111 17- 17- 17
Blue #5555ab 85- 85-171
Green #346934 52-105- 52
Cyan #336666 51-102-102
Red #8f4747 143- 71- 71
Magenta #8a458a 138- 69-138
Yellow #606030 96- 96- 48
White #b9b9b9 185-185-185
Bright Black #3b3b3b 59- 59- 59
Bright Blue #8484ff 132-132-255
Bright Green #50a150 80-161- 80
Bright Cyan #4f9e9e 79-158-158
Bright Red #db6e6e 219-110-110
Bright Magenta #d169d1 209-105-209
Bright Yellow #94944a 148-148- 74
Bright White #f1f1f1 241-241-241
neat, i'll try it out.
This, but with a black background instead of that disgusting poo brown. Solarized is shit because the colors aren't distinctive enough. Colored text is there to distinguish elements, not look a e s t h e t i c, and solarized just looks like a pastel smear.
bump. currently using misterioso theme but looking to change.

Thank me later.
The ultimate colorscheme is off/on only.
>emacs
nice, seems like nobody uses it these days
you'd think Jow Forums would have more people using emacs
no, but the one I'm using is
please post your soft and cozy color schemes in the purple-pink-blue area of the palette
i adapted the spacemacs default dark colors for mine. i'll share my highlighting defs if you like
>green over somewhat darker green
Thanks but no thanks
for me, it's google dark on terminal.sexy
I can read the green on dk.green much easier than the reds. gah, I hate reds.
The only ultimate color scheme is either one that doesn't screw with your eyes as much, or one that screws with your eyes for the sake of appearances.
Dracular is better.
>low contrast shit
Don't you want to clearly see what you're typing? It's kind of important.

All dark themes mess with my eyes
emacs is great
but you make it look like shit
Yes.

I like material theme more for emacs
no
syntax highlighting is for fags
Nord.
>misterioso theme
That's a neat one.
I wanted a dark theme with kind of high contrast that also has a light variant (I like toggling dark-theme / light-theme for when I'm comfy vs when I'm in a bright room with a lot of reflections on my display)
I'm currently using material theme, but there's a lot of söy in it, for example the org mode sections with a huge font and 3d button like background.

soft-charcoal on melpa is currently unmaintained but sounds like what you're looking for
I just saw the screenshot posted just between our posts.
too low contrast, especially the comments.
One Dark (the default theme in Atom) is the most consistently good across most editors. Material is usually good but sometimes too green. Obsidian and Oblivion can be good if done right.
I thought I was using manoj-dark, had forgotten that I'd changed it so deleted the post.
Here's a screen if anyone else is interested.
Wombat for Emacs
Dark+ for VSCode
whatever is standard terminal color scheme for vim
recommend a theme that is like deeper-blue, but background is black
I prefer this one.
Though it looks terrible on a TN monitor I have at work.
>what is constrast
I've been using this, because colors are for fags
I've been using solarized dark ever since it was released. I want to migrate to something else but everytime I try something else I keep reverting back to it.
Help me bros.
I've already tried all of base16 and most on terminal.sexy.
This. Constant luminance is hands down the best way to make a color theme and does wonders for preventing eye strain.
But yeah, if the luminance is constant it means combining any of them makes the blend in and become unreadable.
I wish backgrounds were totally separate colors you could define instead of re-using the foregrounds. I wonder how hard it would be to patch something like that into an existing terminal emulator.
I prefer gruvbox
I too like washed out colors, something similar to what's shown on that page. I already have something similar for vim, terminal emulator, wm and most other things.
I use Plan9 theme in Emacs and for my terminals.
The Emacs theme is the only one I've found that doesn't make weird decisions about syntax highlighting. I'll never understand why the designers try to hide comments.
solarized is nice but gets boring after a while, I like using gruvbox with tweaked colors as my main theme
sometimes I switch to the kaolin themes because they're so good: github.com
I use solarized light everywhere
Anyone know vscode themes like this? I just want a little colour, not too much.
I like afterglow
it's custom one IIRC, I asked him a few times on twitter but he didn't respond, so...
this looks nice. can I get some of the color values?
> ded thread is ded
This or STFU
> how to screenshot
Black on white is not good, you don't want contrast as high as that. There's a reason why all the background colors are a shade of brown.
I use seoul256 but Jetbrains' Darcula is also nice

Fags walk into starbucks with their macbook airs doing front end html in atom with their 60$ font, colorful themes and particle effects when you type each letter. This isn't kindergarten, your screen does not need to look like an unicorn tripping on acid threw up on all over your fagbook.
Vim with high contrast for maximum efficiency and minimal gayness.

Solarized is the worst colorscheme ever conceived. I can't believe it got this popular.
Not only is it impractical, it downright looks like shit. There is no reason to use it.
I changed to Dracula today and it's neat.
