🛠 Customization & Tips

Enable Semantic Highlighting

For the best visual experience, make sure semantic highlighting is enabled in your settings:

Font Recommendations

This theme pairs beautifully with clean monospaced fonts that support ligatures. We recommend:

{
  "editor.lineHeight": 1.6,
  "editor.fontSize": 14,
  "editor.minimap.enabled": false,
  "editor.scrollbar.horizontal": "hidden",
  "workbench.startupEditor": "none"
}
