Color Theory Behind the Design

V Theme is meticulously designed using advanced color theory principles to create a visually pleasing, harmonious, and productive coding environment.

Dark Theme: Modern Blue-Gray Harmony

The dark theme features a clean, modern color palette:

• Deep Blue-Gray (#212836) - Primary background color that's easy on the eyes
• Teal Accent (#64FFDA) - Primary accent for highlighting important elements
• Complementary Accents - Carefully selected colors for syntax highlighting

Light Theme: Clean and Refreshing

The light theme maintains a professional appearance with:

• Soft Blue-White (#F5F8FA) - Gentle background that reduces eye strain
• Teal Accent (#00A3A3) - Primary accent that provides continuity with the dark theme
• Balanced Contrast - Careful color selection for readability in bright environments

Strategic Color Psychology

Colors were carefully selected based on their psychological impact:

• Blue tones - Promote concentration, creativity, and focus
• Teal accents - Create a sense of clarity and balance
• Proper contrast - Ensures readability without causing eye fatigue

Accessibility & Readability

Both themes maintain excellent contrast ratios between text and backgrounds, following accessibility best practices to ensure readability during long coding sessions. Comments are subtly distinguished without sacrificing legibility.
