Ardent – a color theme with 36 variations

Ardent is a color theme optimized for readability and reduced eye strain. It comes with 36 variations with different levels of contrast, chroma, and lightness.

Ardent is built using Dainty for Visual Studio Code, and all colors are defined and processed within the Lab color space. Some unique features for most Dainty themes is that punctuation marks are slightly dimmed. Also, the workbench is less busy than in the default themes.
