Dark Nova

Dark Nova is a colorful theme with semantic token / highlighting support.

Language Support

First-class language support:

  • Rust
  • TOML
  • JSON
  • YAML
  • NASM / Assembly language

Basic, rudimentary support:

  • JavaScript
  • TypeScript
  • Unix/Linux shell
  • PowerShell
  • Just

Other languages will be supported on a best-effort basis until I have more free time.

Stability

Unstable / pre-alpha software.

Despite the theme being in its infancy, I am already using it as my "daily driver". Thus, you can be sure that updates will be frequent and anything broken will promptly be fixed!

Development Status

This project is under active development and will receive frequent updates until it reaches a point of stability that I am comfortable with. Please use at your own risk, as there will be many breaking changes as I iron out the issues and get the palette's colors to play well with each other.

Roadmap

  • [ ] CSS color parser
    • [ ] Hex strings (#RRGGBB / #RRGGBBAA)
    • [ ] RGB / RGBA
    • [ ] HSL / HSLA
  • [ ] Theme generator
    • [ ] Automate process of adding, removing and modifying colors
    • [ ] Generate color variants to reflect context
      • This is to provide better support for modifiers such as public, declaration, etc.

Miscellaneous

I am simply a developer and, although I try my best, I am not a designer. If you experience issues regarding colors clashing in ways that you disapprove of, or if something is not working right, please open an issue on GitHub.
