Consonance Color Themes for VS Code

Collection of minimalistic dark color themes that each consist of one primary hue.

About

  1. Colors are defined using LCh(ab), a cylindrical transformation of CIELAB color space, which was designed to be perceptually uniform and approximate human vision. This ensures the colors are accurate and consistent within and across themes.
  2. Color palettes consist of one primary hue and a secondary hue that complements it. The primary hue is mostly used for more colorful elements while the complementary hue is mostly used for subdued, neutral elements. This creates a soothing, minimalist aesthetic while still adding a bit of color contrast between colorful and neutral elements.
  3. Relies on lightness + chroma and bold + italic text over color to provide contrast. This adds contrast while still allowing for a limited color palette. Lightness and chroma values were carefully tweaked to try to provide high enough contrast between elements without overdoing it.
