Which colorscheme has the best features and granular customization (default colors aside)? Or a plugin for building custom color schemes?
nivm-highlite boasts ease of configuration, but I haven't tried it yet. It shows only dark themes, but most of the themes support `background=light`. However they are kinda low contrast out of the box.

My first 'basic' colorscheme
My plugin and mini.colors can also do it.
-
`nvim-highlite` v4: Colorscheme Template → Exporter, Generator, and Retrofitter
tl;dr: export your favorite themes to new formats (e.g. wezterm theme), generate new colorschemes from only a palette of colors, update old colorschemes to automatically include support for new plugins (it sometimes makes them faster too). Repo link
-
mini.colors - tweak and save any color scheme (plus animate transition and convert between some color spaces)
Wow. I just spent like an hour the other day converting colortrans to Lua because I wanted my colorscheme generator to work with all systems, but with this I can just remove built-in support for cterm and suggest mini.color for that purpose.

Color schemes with semantic highlights
Mine, nvim-highlite
-
I contributed to (mostly) 14 top-rated Neovim color schemes. Here are some observations
I do wish there was a builtin way to partially link highlight groups. In my colorscheme I opted for this syntax, which resolves self into the batch of groups being defined recursively unwraps highlight links to fetch the true highlight group being referenced.

Colorschemes without true color
Shameless self-plug, but nvim-highlite and all of its inheritors support everything from 8-bit to 256-bt and is written using the Neovim API.
-
Get impatient.nvim!
Haven't tried newer color schemes on the block, but I have tried a lot and all of them add 100s of ms to startup time. Eventually settled on a copy of https://github.com/Iron-E/nvim-highlite. Another culprit tends to be all the fancy statusline.
-
Theme Help!
Not to self advertise (regulars here know I do that enough), but my colorscheme is made to work in any range of color. If you don't like it, look under the usage section— all of the colorschemes others have made with it also work without termguicolors.
-
Proposal for lua colorscheme standardization
I'm a little puzzled as to why they'd do that. It's completely possible to use the :colorscheme command.

Big fan of the base16 philosophy

Customize color theme in NvChad
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.
-
Colorschemes that use treesitter and are 256-color?
Correct. It uses main Base16 styling.
-
Lua function to dump current neovim colorscheme to kitty
Nice. Might be useful for dumping themes for the base16 framework
-
Dark theme with good coverage
Stuff with base16 support is a good place to look. I've had good luck with Gruvbox (dark, hard).

I contributed to (mostly) 14 top-rated Neovim color schemes. Here are some observations
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.

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

Samples of code used for creating themes / color schemes
I'm talking about themes for terminals, text editors, notifications, [task]bars, etc. For example, these.
