// Wes Bos recommends Operator Mono. It's $200 and you need to buy it to get the cursive. I personally like Victor

// iScript is my secondary option.

package.json

I don't like something
First, this theme is new so if something is funky, please open an issue. There are many languages and parts of VS Code I don't use, so let me know!
These are the things we have control over. If you would like to change something, you can either open a PR and see if I'd like it added, or override the colors in your own settings.json file.

Check out the original Cobalt 2!
If green's not your thing, the original blue is pretty sweet too. (This wasn't supposed to rhyme. Oops.)
