🎨 Color Philosophy

Ava Night follows a simple principle:

Every color should communicate meaning—not compete for attention.

The palette is intentionally restrained:

• 💜 Keywords guide control flow
• 💙 Functions emphasize behavior
• 💚 Strings remain calm and readable
• 💛 Types and classes stand out naturally
• 🩶 Comments fade into the background without disappearing

The interface is built around cool midnight blues, soft neutrals, and subtle contrast to reduce visual fatigue.
