🧙‍♀️ Why "Purple Owl"?

Owls are wise, nocturnal creatures—just like you when you're coding at 2AM. Purple Owl is for developers who want a bit of mystery and magic in their IDE.

🙌 Contributing

Found an issue or want to suggest improvements? PRs are welcome on GitHub, but the theme uses similar colors for everything (e.g. all bgs are the same hue) so do keep that if you want to change anything.

It's under MIT - so feel free to use it! I'd love to see you experiment yourself (but do read MIT first - it's only two paragraphs).
