chameleon.excludedThemes

By default, 🦎 Chameleon rotates through all installed themes. If you have a theme that you don't want to use, you can add the theme to the chameleon.excludedThemes option. To exclude all the built-in VSCode themes, add default to this options.

{
  "chameleon.excludedThemes": ["default", "theme1", "theme2"]
}

chameleon.uiTheme

To only use dark or light themes, use the chameleon.uiTheme option. If you want to use all the themes, either remove the option or assign it to all.

  "chameleon.uiTheme": "dark"
