Re: Dracula Theme – A dark theme for many different apps
#202What other themes are there like this? I know of Nord, but it would be interesting to see what other themes there are that are as comprehensive as Nord and Dracula.

#203I'm a fan. It's a good name, a decent theme, and there just is something comforting in having things look the same across applications...

Speaking of which, I remember coming across a tool on Github(?) that allowed generating color themes for multiple applications and editors at once from a single set of colors (maybe even directly from the dominant colors of an image, like gvcci[0]). Does anyone happen to know that project?

#204Dracula is a fine theme, however, I feel like it's more convenient than it is pretty. I admire Dracula, Nord, and Gruvbox and how committed they are to their own aesthetics - my personal favorite, similar to Gruvbox, is Alduin[0] but sadly it's for Vim only. I only wish popular themes didn't feel like they had to use every primary color for the text. I wish we took the popular themes and made them even more opinionat…
I'm a real fan of Modus Themes[0]. They are only officially for emacs, but I've seen some ports for other programs (like vim). All the colors are very specifically chosen for contrast and accessibility. It's my favorite light theme out there. I do wish the dark theme background wasn't pure black. Both of these themes now ship with emacs 28, which is a nice bonus.

Oh wow. Alduin looks nigh-illegible to me.
Might be an effect of macOS's auto-color-temp adjusting. On a monitor that's set so it's like staring into the sun (how most other monitors feel, once you're used to that feature) maybe it's easier to read.

#207I used solarized for a long time, but then I got PaperColor [0] recommended by a colleague recently, and after trying it for a bit I liked it so much that I switched to that exclusively. It was originally made for vim, but there are ports to other tools[1]. [0]: https://github.com/NLKNguyen/papercolor-theme [1]: https://github.com/NLKNguyen/papercolor-theme#-related-proje...
Fun fact: The dark variant of Solarized was chosen as it reminded the designer of drowning.
very apt because that does accurately describe my feelings when looking at my code

The One Dark (Atom's default dark theme) and Solarized come to mind as widely used themes although I'm not sure they have as much of a branding as the two you named.
