WWDC17 Color Scheme for Vim

A colorful light theme for Vim inspired by the colors of 2017's WWDC event.

This color scheme works out of the box everywhere. For the best experience, you need:

• Vim ≥7.4.1799 with termguicolors set, and
• a true-color enabled terminal.

WWDC17 also works in MacVim, gVim, etc…: no configuration is needed.

For terminals not supporting true colors, WWDC17 will fall back to use a (pretty good) approximate palette based on xterm's 256 colors. And if you happen to stumble upon an old vt100 terminal emulator, well, WWDC17 will fall back to black&white at the blink of an eye!

Options

Put the following options in your vimrc to customize the color scheme.

• Give your theme a unique touch by selecting a different frame color:

    let g:wwdc17_frame_color = 10
  

  This is the color of the status line, tab line, and vertical splits. The value of this option should be a number between 0 and 15.

• Use a transparent background in the terminal:

    let g:wwdc17_transp_bg = 1
  

The color palette is available through g:terminal_ansi_colors.

Hacking

Do you want to hack the theme? Install the Colortemplate ftplugin and modify wwdc17.colortemplate, then rebuild the colorscheme.
