One Light Italic2

slightly modifed of the following theme

One Light Italic

Project unmaintained.

I recommend the Yi Theme for you. It is the only true port of Atom's One theme I've known. Most all of the other Atom one light themes use the .tmTheme color format or a direct json conversion of this format. (.tmTheme stands for TextMate theme, some editors like Sublime and VSCode have support for this legacy format.)

It looks like the Yi Theme stands out from all the other Atom themes (not only the light ones) cause

  • It's a true port from Atom's One theme based on the source code of Atom
  • It includes both light and dark themes
  • It covers not only the text syntax color, but also colors for the other part of the VSCode UI, like workbench.

It's a pity that Yi Theme doesn't include "Atom One" in its name and doesn't appear in the search result of keyword like "atom one theme" in the marketplace.

For anyone like the italic syntax in this color theme, use following token color customization settings.

Besides, here's also my custom terminal color definition. A modified version of base16 "One Light" and "Onedark". Just put it here in case anyone wanna have a try.

Atom one light theme with italic support for VSCode.

Althought this them defines light ansi colors for terminal, it's designed to be used by TUI apps but not the shell itself.
