Kvothe Theme for VS Code

Install from VS Code Marketplace

Preview

This project is essentially an experiment to transpose the aesthetic of my terminal to my code editor.

Drawing inspiration from the deep contrasts and vibrant hues of the PowerLevel10K Theme for Oh My Zsh, and building on Wes Bos' Cobalt2 theme (refer to the included license), the Kvothe theme offers a high-contrast dark theme for VS Code. It features a palette that accentuates dark blues alongside vivid, high-contrast greens.

Installation

  • Navigate to the Extensions sidebar panel in VS Code.
  • Search for "Kvothe Theme Official."
  • Click "Install" to add it to your editor.
  • Navigate through Code > Preferences > Color Theme > Kvothe to activate it.
