Colorized Theme

48 themes (24 light/24 dark) inspired by the original Colorized palettes but based off the GitHub theme for a modern yet portable look. Each pairing balances vibrant accents with measured contrast so the editor feels lively without sacrificing legibility.

🔰 Works best with Colorized Manager to pick and apply variants per workspace automatically.

Highlights

  • 48 curated variants – 24 numbered spectrum pairs (🔆 Colorized Light NN – Name / 🌙 Colorized Dark NN – Name) alongside the classic GitHub Light Default and Dark Dimmed baselines.
  • Balanced accessibility – Accent choices target ≥4.6:1 contrast in light mode and ≥7.0:1 in dark mode for common UI surfaces, keeping commands, git decorations, and diff markers readable.
  • Cohesive chrome – Activity bar, panels, badges, and sticky scroll surfaces inherit the same tint logic, so switching between variants keeps the interface consistent.
  • GitHub-friendly – Color decisions build on the GitHub Primer system, pairing well with repositories, PR reviews, and devcontainer defaults.

Variant Catalog

The spectrum is organized from warm reds through cool blues and greens to vibrant purples.

Pick the pair that fits your workspace mood, or explore during different times of day—each light/dark duo is tuned to feel like two halves of the same idea.

Install

  1. Go to VS Marketplace.
