rediohead theme 🌶️
A spicy red dark theme inspired by chili peppers, Vesper and Silent Red Theme. Designed for comfort and clarity with strong yet calm contrast.
- Developed for Go, Python, and TypeScript (but hopefully works with everything) ✨
- Red-forward accenting with balanced neutrals for long coding sessions
- Works in both VS Code and Cursor
Look & Feel

For contributors:
Run locally with launch.json (Dev Host)
If you want to iterate quickly using an Extension Development Host:
- Open Run and Debug (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+D), pick “Run rediohead Theme”, then press F5.
- In the new “Extension Development Host” window: Cmd+K, Cmd+T → choose “rediohead theme”.
- Make changes → reload Dev Host (Developer: Reload Window) to see updates. 🚀
Install (from repo clone)
- Clone this repo
- Install vsce:
npm install -g @vscode/vsce
- Package the theme:
cd rediohead_theme
vsce package
- In VS Code or Cursor: Extensions → “…” → Install from VSIX… → select the generated
.vsix .
- Activate: File → Preferences → Color Theme → “rediohead theme”.
Language UX highlights
- Go: clearer package/type/builtin separation; operators readable but subtle; function calls accented.
- Python: decorators and magic (dunder) names stand out; punctuation de-emphasized; strings easy on eyes.
- TypeScript: imports, keywords, and types clearly distinguished; properties readable without glare.
