base16 VS forest-night

- Let the user set their shell colors however they want (presumably using [2]), and use the ANSI shell colors (and a few more) according to the base16 style guide [1]. Some translation between shell colors and base16 colors will be necessary, e.g. base16 says that a language keyword should use the color base0E, which in [2] corresponds to ANSI shell color 13.

My impression is that the base16 specification is not sufficiently general for most tools to implement it in a totally unbambiguous way, but if users can set their own colorschemes with a config file, it's not hard for a user to come up with a base16-approximating colorscheme template file, from which other users can generate a config file that sets a specific base16 colorscheme.

Big fan of the base16 philosophy

If anyone struggles with this in the feature, what I was looking for was a list like the one in https://github.com/chriskempson/base16/blob/39fb23df970d4d6190d000271dec260250986012/styling.md.

Correct. It uses main Base16 styling.

Nice. Might be useful for dumping themes for the base16 framework

Stuff with base16 support is a good place to look. I've had good luck with Gruvbox (dark, hard).

I am not entirely sure what you mean by "universal format for themes", but there I personally love Base16 convention with its recommendation for styling. This is what I ended up (re)implementing for Neovim: mini.base16. It's been around, so most of instruments should have support for this.

It’s been mentioned earlier in this thread, but base16 is basically that. I use it, and it’s ok!

I'm talking about themes for terminals, text editors, notifications, [task]bars, etc. For example, these.

I'm using this colorscheme and from the screenshots it seems like it's using NvimTree. And as you can see the background of the editor and the one of NvimTree is the same, but it's not like that on my end. As you can see my NvimTree is darker than the editor. In the Everforest docs, it says that if mine doesn't look the same as in the screenshots, then it has something to do with terminalguicolors, but they work just fine, they're enabled and they make the whole theme work.

Surprised I had to scroll down so much to find this reply. everforest is a great theme, customizable and for once, both the dark and light versions are really usable and high quality. I love it.

Thanks for feedback, I'll start to make a greener one when I have some spare time. In the meantime you might like https://github.com/sainnhe/everforest it's a Vim theme that is also pretty green and looks nice in my opinion

There are also non-purple-ish color schemes coming right after top 5: - sainnhe/everforest - sainnhe/gruvbox-material and ellisonleao/gruvbox.nvim - navarasu/onedark.nvim - marko-cerovac/material.nvim (except one variation) - shaunsingh/nord.nvim

should be https://github.com/sainnhe/everforest

Saw that you liked the look of rose-pine, I recently switched from that to everforest and it's surprisingly solid. Definitely a little muted, but has some benefits:

Theme: Everforest

I was a Gruvbox guy for quite a while.

I found Everforest a few months ago and really like it: https://github.com/sainnhe/everforest

I'm a sucker for Everforest.
