chalktone.nvim

mmmmmm warm and chalky

Summary

A colorscheme for neovim made with lush.nvim. New project, actively in development!

Installation

Pick your plugin manager!

lazy.nvim

'daneofmanythings/chalktone.nvim',
priority = 1000,
lazy = false,
config = function()
    require('chalktone').setup()
    vim.g.colorscheme('chalktone')
end

Setup

The basic setup structure:

require('chalktone').setup({
    theme = 'default', -- pick between 'default', 'saturated'
    formatting = {
        -- Apply stylings to multiple highlight groups at once.
    },
    format_by_group = {
        -- Apply stylings to a single group at a time. 
        -- Overwites stylings from formatting. 
    },
})

This plugin exposes neovims highlighting api :h nvim_set_hl under 'formatting' and 'format_by_group'. A more detailed examination can be found in CONFIGURATION. Below are some convenience formatting setups to aid in common alterations

no italics

...
    formatting = {
        builtin_strings = {
            styling = { italic = false },
        },
    },
...

transparent background

...
    formatting = {
        builtin_transparent = {
            styling = { bg = 'None' },
        },
    },
...

no background fading

...
    formatting = {
        builtin_bg_fading = {
            styling = { link = 'Normal' },
        },
    },
...
