A soft dark VS Code theme built for long coding sessions.
Dark mocha base · rosewater accents · cool cyan contrast.
Design Philosophy
Roseveil keeps the editor quiet so your code stays in focus.
Backgrounds stay deep and low-glare. Borders remain subtle.
Accents are reserved for meaningful states: active controls, focus rings, selections, errors, and interactive elements.
Rose accents for warmth and identity
Cyan / turquoise for contrast and clarity
Muted lavender for secondary and merged states
Dark mocha base for a low-fatigue editing surface
