If you mean in the gif, it is just VSCode. In Neovim I was recommended nvim-colorizer.lua [here](https://github.com/NvChad/nvim-colorizer.lua/)

How to install treesitter rainbow in lazyvim?
2 projects | /r/neovim | 1 Jul 2023

Hi, I would like to install this plugin: https://github.com/HiPhish/nvim-ts-rainbow2 in LazyVim but I have no idea how to do it. Did anyone manage to do it? Thanks!

A couple nice quality of life plugins would be: Comment (which lets you use a keybinding to comment/uncomment things), Autopairs (which will make the paired brackets/parentheses/etc.), and Rainbow2 (which color-matches the pairs if things like parentheses).
miss-dracula, yet another colorscheme for night owls that still like colors

Anyway, I've been tweaking the existing Dracula theme and I'm kinda happy with the result, so I created a separate fork in case you want to piggy-back on it. I also added support for the DAP UI (since the existing highlights were hideous) and also added another set of rainbow colors for nvim-ts-rainbow2.

I don't think we need an entire organization at this point. I have now created a GitHub mirror in case you want to check it out. Development is on GitLab, but you can file a PR on GitHub as well if you want. I recently found how to use GitHub without workflow lock-in, so I don't really care where contributions come from.
