PaletteSwap is part of my mission to make development not only functional but also enjoyable through better customization.

🌈 Overview
PaletteSwap is a lightweight and visually appealing VS Code extension that allows developers to quickly apply color themes to their editor’s UI components like the status bar, activity bar, and title bar — directly from a simple Quick Pick menu.
It’s perfect for developers who want to personalize their workspace or quickly test how colors look against their current theme.
