Oceanic Rift

A deep-ocean dark theme for Visual Studio Code — calm blue surfaces with a warm, high-contrast syntax palette. Adapted from the Oceanic Reef Atom syntax.

Oceanic Rift

Highlights

  • Deep-ocean UI. Every surface — editor, sidebar, activity bar, title bar, menus, notifications, peek views — sits on a calming blue palette.
  • Integrated terminal ANSI colors match the companion Oceanic Reef terminal theme, and blend with the editor background.
