Marketplace | Repository | Issues | Changelog

This color scheme is a port of Sonokai for Visual Studio Code and a fork of the original Sonokai extension made by sainnhe:

Sometimes I need a high contrast color scheme, and I think monokai is one of the best solutions, it's very beautiful and vivid.

However there is one thing I can't stand -- the contrast is too high, which is totally unacceptable for me.

This color scheme is based on Monokai Pro, the contrast is adjusted to be a bit lower while keeping the colors vivid enough.

The shusia, maia and espresso variants are basically modified versions of Monokai Pro. I'm not going to port all variants of Monokai Pro because I don't like some of them. In addition, I designed some new variants inspired by other color schemes.

Features

  • High contrast but within acceptable range.
  • Vivid colors.
  • Rich support for common file types.
  • Italic support.

FAQ

Q: How to enable cursive italic keywords?

A: The italics in this color scheme is designed to use with fonts that support cursive italic styles. To enable this feature, you'll need to install a font that supports cursive italic styles, for example: https://www.sainnhe.dev/post/patch-fonts-with-cursive-italic-styles/
