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.

Might also want to consider colorbuddy, which also supports tree-sitter (still experimental in lush)

The default colorschemes....
With so many amazing colorschemes being created in the plugin ecosystem, I don't think they are a priority for the core of Neovim. I unfortunately have no time these days, but I would have loved to use something like TJ's colorbuddy.nvim plugin to rewrite the default Vim colorschemes in Lua as a learning project.

How to do this in Neovim?
i dunno but colorbuddy does this as well

Trying to port syntactic colorscheme leveraging Tree Sitter. Any instruction manuals out there?
there's tj's colorbuddy: https://github.com/tjdevries/colorbuddy.nvim there's some TS-stuff in there, no idea if it would check all your boxes.
- Is there a framework that makes it easy to create themes?
- Is there theme creation tool like https://themes.vscode.one for vscode?
What are some alternatives?
