Base16 Default Themes

An opinionated, more minimal take on Base16 Default Dark and Light themes for VS Code.

This extension provides the following themes:

• Base16 Default Dark
• Base16 Default Light

Development

Open this repository in VS Code and press F5 to start an Extension Development Host. Then use Preferences: Color Theme to select either theme.

To create a VSIX package locally:

npx @vscode/vsce package

Release

Releases are built automatically when a semver tag is pushed. The GitHub Actions workflow validates the tag, checks that it matches package.json, packages a .vsix, and attaches it to a GitHub Release.

1. Bump version in package.json.
2. Move entries from [Unreleased] to a new version section in CHANGELOG.md.
3. Commit and push to main.
4. Tag the release (the tag must match package.json, with a v prefix):

git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0

The workflow runs on tags matching v*.*.* (for example v0.1.0 or v1.0.0-beta.1). If the tag is not valid semver, or its version does not match package.json, the release fails.

To publish to the VS Code Marketplace:

vsce login ddnomad
vsce publish
