Linux Themes for Visual Studio Code

GitHub license Download GitHub issues

An integrated color theme for the most popular Linux GTK themes

These VS Code themes integrate seamlessly with your GTK themes to provide a more integrated experience.

Arc Theme

Adapta Theme

Ubuntu GNOME

Ambiance

For the Arc theme, the syntax coloring is the default VS Code one. For Adapta, it is taken from Mattia Astorino's great Material Theme (an alternative to this Adapta theme!)

Syntax coloring used:

  • Arc: Base16 Tommorow Dark
  • Adapta: Mattia Astorino's great Material Theme (an alternative to this Adapta theme!)
  • United Ubuntu & Ambiance: Base16 IR Black

I created those themes myself to suit my needs - I hope you wil like it too!

  • Drop to terminal and write the following:
