How to install
VS Code
- Create `%USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions\<slug>-theme\themes\` on Windows, or `~/.vscode/extensions/<slug>-theme/themes/` on macOS or Linux.
- Download both files. Place `package.json` in the extension folder and the color theme JSON in `themes`.
- Run `Developer: Reload Window`, then choose it with `Preferences: Color Theme`.
- `Developer: Generate Color Theme From Current Settings` does not import arbitrary JSON, so the extension-folder method is the local import path.
Windows Terminal
- Open Settings, then open the JSON file.
- Paste the object into the top-level `schemes` array.
- Set a profile `colorScheme` value to the scheme `name`.
iTerm2
- Download the `.itermcolors` file and double-click it.
- Open Preferences > Profiles > Colors.
- Choose the imported palette from Color Presets.
Alacritty
- Save the file under `~/.config/alacritty/themes/` on macOS or Linux, or `%APPDATA%\alacritty\themes\` on Windows.
- Add `general.import = ["~/.config/alacritty/themes/<file>.toml"]` to `alacritty.toml`.
- Restart Alacritty or reload config.
Kitty
- Save the file in `~/.config/kitty/themes/`.
- Add `include themes/<file>.conf` to `~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf`.
- Reload Kitty or restart the terminal.
Ghostty
- Save the file as `~/.config/ghostty/themes/<name>` on macOS or Linux, or `%APPDATA%\ghostty\config\themes\<name>` on Windows.
- Add `theme = <name>` to your Ghostty config.
- Restart Ghostty.
IntelliJ IDEA
- Download the `.icls` file.
- Open Settings > Editor > Color Scheme, click the gear, then Import Scheme.
- Choose the `.icls` file and apply it.
- This covers editor colors and console ANSI colors. Full IDE UI theming requires a JetBrains theme plugin from the JetBrains Platform SDK documentation.
Neovim
- Save the Lua file to `~/.config/nvim/colors/<slug>.lua` on macOS or Linux, or `%LOCALAPPDATA%\nvim\colors\<slug>.lua` on Windows.
- Run `:colorscheme <slug>`.
- Persist it with `vim.cmd.colorscheme("<slug>")` in `init.lua`.
opencode
- Save the JSON file to `~/.config/opencode/themes/<slug>.json` on macOS or Linux, or `%USERPROFILE%\.config\opencode\themes\<slug>.json` on Windows.
- Set the theme name in the opencode `theme` setting.
- Restart opencode.
Zed
- Save the JSON file in `~/.config/zed/themes/` on macOS or Linux.
- On Windows, use `%APPDATA%\Zed\themes\` if you run a Windows build.
- Open Zed settings and select the imported style name.
Helix
- Save the TOML file to `~/.config/helix/themes/<slug>.toml` on macOS or Linux, or `%APPDATA%\helix\themes\<slug>.toml` on Windows.
- Set `theme = "<slug>"` in `~/.config/helix/config.toml`.
- Restart Helix or run `:theme <slug>`.
Sublime Text
- Save the `.sublime-color-scheme` file to `Packages/User`, usually `~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text/Packages/User` on macOS, `%APPDATA%\Sublime Text\Packages\User` on Windows, or `~/.config/sublime-text/Packages/User` on Linux.
- Open Command Palette and run `UI: Select Color Scheme`.
