Carbonight is a carefully crafted dark theme that blends deep, near-black backgrounds with soft pastel syntax colors, designed for developers who enjoy calm, focused coding sessions — especially at night.

• Carefully tuned pastel color palette for syntax highlighting
• Clear bracket matching and error/warning visibility
• Consistent dark styling across editor, sidebar, panels, and terminal

🖤 Philosophy

Carbonight avoids aggressive contrast, neon colors, and visual clutter. It’s meant to fade into the background so your code stays in focus.

If you like themes that are:

• dark but not pitch-harsh
• colorful but not noisy
• minimal but not boring

Carbonight is for you.
