An ice-cream parlour for your editor — five pastel scoops, muted and never neon.

Gelato Stand Theme is a pastel VS Code theme that ships as five flavours in one extension. Every flavour shares one tuned palette, so switching between them never feels like a different product — only like picking another scoop.

Install

1. Open Extensions in VS Code (Ctrl+Shift+X).
2. Search Gelato Stand Theme and click Install.
3. Ctrl+K Ctrl+T → pick Gelato Stand Theme Light / Dark / Strawberry / Pistachio / Blueberry.

Or from a VSIX:

code --install-extension gelato-stand-theme-1.0.0.vsix

Set it in settings.json

{
  "workbench.colorTheme": "Gelato Stand Theme Strawberry",

  // optional: nudge one surface without leaving the flavour
  "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "statusBar.background": "#DD8FAD"
  }
}

What's tuned

• 144 hand-placed UI colours per flavour, plus light/dark syntax tokens and semantic tokens.
• Pastel, low-saturation accents — readable on both the light and dark bases, never neon.
• De-collided backgrounds — each base sits clear of the occupied cream / blue / green bands used by other marketplace themes, so the set reads as its own family.
• Status bar, active tab and focus ring carry the flavour colour, so you can tell the variants apart at a glance.

The complete colour table lives in COLOR-SPEC.md.

2. 搜索 Gelato Stand Theme 并点击 安装。
3. Ctrl+K Ctrl+T → 选择 Gelato Stand Theme Light / Dark / Strawberry / Pistachio / Blueberry。

或使用 VSIX 安装：

code --install-extension gelato-stand-theme-1.0.0.vsix

在 settings.json 中指定

{
  "workbench.colorTheme": "Gelato Stand Theme Strawberry",

  // 可选：只微调某一处颜色，不脱离该口味
  "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "statusBar.background": "#DD8FAD"
  }
}

调校细节

• 每种口味 144 个手工设定的 UI 颜色，外加深 / 浅两套语法 token 与语义 token。
• 低饱和柔彩强调色，在深浅底色上都清晰可读，不使用荧光色。
• 底色避撞：五种底色都从应用市场里已被占用的奶油白 / 浅蓝 / 浅绿带偏移开， 让它看起来是独立的一族，而不是某款主题的换色版。
• 状态栏、活动标签、焦点框统一使用口味色，一眼可辨。
