Auralis

Beautiful in hour one. Comfortable in hour twelve.

Nine themes crafted in perceptual OKLch color, matching file and product icons,
and a toolkit that carries your palette from the editor to the terminal.

Installing changes nothing until you ask. One command applies the whole experience;
Auralis: Reset Auralis Settings takes it all back. Free during the public beta.

The Variants

Every theme below is generated from one OKLch color engine and audited for WCAG contrast on every release — the same code sample, the same terminal, nine different moods. Click any card for the full-resolution view.

Noir Cinematic dark. Jewel-tone syntax.	Frost Glass and neon. Cold and luminous.	Paper Warm light for daylight work.
Botanica A quiet forest at dusk. Organic, alive.	Void True-black OLED. Pixels off, colors on.	Dimmed Lower glare for late-night work.
Noir High Contrast True hc-black for review and debugging.	Paper High Contrast True hc-light for daylight and projectors.	Frost Colorblind Status on a blue/orange axis, not red/green.

Icons That Match

Nearly 400 file icons — with hand-drawn glyphs for Docker, Python, React, Kubernetes, git, Rust, and more — plus a bespoke product icon font that restyles VS Code's own workbench glyphs. Both follow the active theme.

Built In, Not Bolted On

Everything is local-first: no telemetry, no network calls, no startup cost.

• Environment Guard — the workbench warns you when kubectl, Terraform, or git points at production. Guide →
• Rhythm — themes that follow your day: Paper at noon, Noir at midnight. Guide →
• Team profiles — commit .auralis/profile.json and your whole team gets your exact tuned environment, always by consent. Guide →

About the Name

Auralis comes from the aurora — light that appears exactly where the night is darkest — joined to the Latin suffix -alis: "belonging to." Light that belongs to you. Every Auralis theme is built on that idea: color that works with the dark instead of fighting it, tuned to stay beautiful for as long as you're working.
