Deepwoods

Deepwoods is a family of forest-inspired dark themes for Visual Studio Code.
It focuses on calm, natural palettes, crisp contrast and a minimal, Vesper-like syntax style.

ℹ️ Note
Deepwoods is inspired by the excellent Vesper theme for VS Code, but uses its own custom color palettes and token configuration.
