A Base24 color scheme for the post-artisanal coding era.
Code is cheap. Intent is scarce.
Features
1. Color Theme
Human++ inverts traditional syntax highlighting priority:
Quiet syntax — everyday code fades into the background
Loud diagnostics — errors, warnings, and human markers demand attention
The result: when you see color, it means something.
2. Human Intent Markers
Use punctuation markers in comments to flag human judgment:
Marker

Cyan
// Regular comment stays calm
// !! Critical: don't change without talking to Sarah
if (legacyMode) {
// ?? Not sure this handles the edge case
return transformLegacy(data);
}
// >> See utils.ts for the transform logic
return transform(data);
Markers are highlighted with bright backgrounds, making human intent instantly visible.
3. Inline Diagnostics
Errors and warnings appear as inline badges at the end of lines, so you don't need to hover or check the Problems panel.
Commands
Human++: Toggle Marker Highlighting — Enable/disable all highlighting
