Remixed Kanagawa colourscheme with muted colors. For VSCode.

screenshot

This is a Visual Studio Code port of the Kanagawa Paper neovim theme. More details, and extra themes for other applications, can be found in that repo.

Kanagawa Paper includes both a dark variant (ink) and a light variant (canvas).

Compared to the original Kanagawa theme, Paper uses a more muted color palette for syntax highlighting, which is a bit easier on the eyes.

Upstream Color Sources

For color consistency and parity checks, upstream values come from:

  • Palette colors: lua/kanagawa-paper/colors.lua
  • Theme files:
    • lua/kanagawa-paper/themes/ink.lua
    • lua/kanagawa-paper/themes/canvas.lua
