vim-taste

Light and dark vim colorscheme, based on elementary OS Brand colors.

Supports true colors and falls back gracefully and automatically if your environment does not support this feature.

Vim Airline theme

Add the following line to your ~/.vimrc or ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

let g:airline_theme='taste'

This theme comes with light and dark flavors. You can toggle between the two via set background=light or set background=dark.

List of enhanced language support

Pull requests are more than welcome here. I have created few issues to provide a bare bone roadmap for this color scheme.

• Asciidoc
• Cucumber features
• CSS and Sass
• Elixir
• HTML
• JavaScript, JSON
• Markdown
• Ruby
• Vim
• XML
• Go

Installation

You can use your preferred Vim Package Manager to install taste.

Usage

taste comes in two flavors: light and dark, make sure to properly set your background before setting the colorscheme.

set background=dark " for the dark version
" set background=light " for the light version
colorscheme taste

Italic support

Some terminals do not support italic, cf. [#3][issue_3].

If your terminal does support italic, you can set the g:taste_allow_italics variable to 1 in your .vimrc or .config/nvim/init.vim:

set background=light        " for the light version
let g:taste_allow_italics = 1 " I love italic for comments
colorscheme taste

iTerm2 can support italic, follow the instructions given in this blog post by Alex Pearce. Make sure to read the update if you are using tmux version 2.1 or above.

True color support

To benefit from the true color support make sure to add the following lines in your .vimrc or .config/nvim/init.vim

"Use 24-bit (true-color) mode in Vim/Neovim when outside tmux.
"If you're using tmux version 2.2 or later, you can remove the outermost $TMUX check and use tmux's 24-bit color support
"(see < http://sunaku.github.io/tmux-24bit-color.html#usage > for more information.)
if (empty($TMUX))
  if (has("nvim"))
  "For Neovim 0.1.3 and 0.1.4 < https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/2198 >
  let $NVIM_TUI_ENABLE_TRUE_COLOR=1
  endif
  "For Neovim > 0.1.5 and Vim > patch 7.4.1799 < https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/61be73bb0f965a895bfb064ea3e55476ac175162 >
  "Based on Vim patch 7.4.1770 (`guicolors` option) < https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/8a633e3427b47286869aa4b96f2bfc1fe65b25cd >
  " < https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Following-HEAD#20160511 >
  if (has("termguicolors"))
    set termguicolors
  endif
endif

I've tested the following setup on a Mac:

• iTerm2 nightly build
