I use (Neo)Vim on a terminal with the option "colorscheme" set on "default". When I tried Dracula and set up my terminal color scheme with it, it made diffs on Vim unreadable (sometimes background color was the same as the foreground color). I have never seen anywhere any mention of this issue. Did someone also have this problem here?
Cool idea of making it available across so many different applications, but I wish it was aesthetically pleasing. It just doesn't do it for me...
I wonder if they have some machinery developed that can be reused to port other themes to all the apps?
I like how they just use random icons for each app on the page
I have a hard time seeing why this is such a popular theme.. maybe it's just because it is available for so many different editors. On the other hand, would be cool to have an application / database that could convert any theme to another editor. Although that would take a lot of work to figure out the compatibilities, if somebody would do that well enough so that other people can configure input output configs for t…
Dracula creator here... I have a few thoughts on why this is such a popular theme: 1. Decentralized Contributors: every theme is maintained by a different person. There's no single point of failure when it comes to software maintainability. 2. Centralized Discoverability: most themes are scattered and disorganized. The cool thing about Dracula is that you can find everything in one place. 3. Transparency: on the webs…

Bro, nobody cares what color scheme you use, if you're confident about how you feel about it. I toggle between dark and light myself in vscode, depending on how I feel, really like the dark and light versions of the Github theme myself.
I had thought this to be true, but in certain startups with a certain culture, using a light theme will make you look like Dinosaurus who's not able to keep up with the latest tech trends. I know it's dumb, but it is reality in some places.

It’s good to know that I am not alone. There’s this general aspect of not being cool when one is using light theme. How do we tell them that it’s not by choice? I really like the look of someone working in that dark theme and tried a lot to force myself into it only to fail miserably and come back to light theme.

On the internet some start up guys were bragging about rejecting a candidate because he wore a collared shirt to the interview. That it showed he would never "get it".
I use Dracula for pretty much everything. Code editors, terminals, browsers, Slack, and even CSS skins for Tailwind, Wordpress, and more, if I'm installing an application, there's a pretty good chance there's already a theme for it. But there's an interesting side effect of having a theme repository with over 200 applications: app discovery! Whether it's learning about interesting projects (BetterDiscord, MatterMost,…
Man Brackets brings me back. When I was 16-17 I forked a popular HTML skeleton extension but with the difference that I wanted it to have Bootstrap markup ready. This was with zero javascript experience (the extensions themselves used JS). It wasn't until later that I realised it had many thousands of downloads. As of right now 120k. Sadly I've deleted the Github repo, but amazingly Brackets still had a copy of the p…
