Random Color Theme for VS Code

⚠️ Sensitivity Warning: This extension alters the color theme of your IDE frequently and randomly. If you are sensitive to rapid visual changes or have specific visual requirements, please consider this before installation.

Bring a splash of spontaneity and chaos to your coding environment with the Random Color Theme extension for Visual Studio Code! This extension generates a new, randomly colored theme for your IDE every 4 minutes and 20 seconds, keeping your workspace fresh and exciting.
