OMAKASE
OMAKASE starts with a clean flagship dark theme: OMAKASE Dark.
It aims for a deep black workspace, low-noise chrome, and bright syntax accents that stay readable during long coding sessions.
Preview The Theme
You can preview the theme locally with the built-in VS Code extension workflow:
- Open this folder in Visual Studio Code.
- Press
F5.
- A new Extension Development Host window will open.
- In that new window, run
Preferences: Color Theme.
- Pick
OMAKASE Dark.
There is no build step for this theme right now. Editing the JSON and pressing F5 again is enough to preview updates.
Create More Themes
Each new theme follows the same simple pattern:
- Add a new JSON file inside
themes.
- Register it in
package.json under contributes.themes.
- Press
F5 and select the new theme in the Extension Development Host.
Example contribution entry:
{
"label": "OMAKASE Light",
"uiTheme": "vs",
"path": "./themes/OMAKASE-light-color-theme.json"
}
Current Direction
OMAKASE Dark uses:
- Near-black backgrounds for a focused dark mode foundation
- Cool blue structure colors for navigation and editor chrome
- Soft green strings, rose keywords, gold properties, and violet types
- Brighter contrast on active surfaces so the UI still feels premium, not flat
