Darcula Theme for Visual Studio

A carefully crafted dark theme for Visual Studio, bringing the beloved Darcula color scheme to your favorite IDE.

📋 Overview

This theme extension brings the popular Darcula color scheme to Visual Studio. It's based on the Darcula Theme for VS Code by rokoroku and inspired by the original Darcula theme from JetBrains.

The theme has been converted using Microsoft's Theme Converter for Visual Studio and carefully refined to provide the best possible experience in Visual Studio.
