Kai Zen is a premium collection of flat-aesthetic VS Code themes designed to facilitate a state of continuous improvement. By removing visual noise and enforcing strict consistency, it allows you to focus purely on refining your craft.
The Philosophy
True to the Japanese concept of Kaizen, this theme collection is built on the principle that small, consistent improvements lead to excellence.
Unified Canvas: The Title Bar, Activity Bar, Sidebar, and Editor share a single, seamless background color. No jarring divisions.
Absolute Flatness: We have eliminated all borders. The UI is defined by color and contrast, not lines.
Solid Precision: Selection states are rendered as solid, high-contrast blocks, giving you immediate, unambiguous feedback.
