iTerm2-Color-Schemes
Over 450 terminal color schemes/themes for iTerm/iTerm2. Includes ports to Terminal, Konsole, PuTTY, Xresources, XRDB, Remmina, Termite, XFCE, Tilda, FreeBSD VT, Terminator, Kitty, MobaXterm, LXTerminal, Microsoft's Windows Terminal, Visual Studio, Alacritty, Ghostty, and many more
I made the "Aardvark Blue" a while back[1] to solve some of the problems that most color schemes have. The goal of this theme is that:
- colors are fairly natural
- background and black are distinct
- grays are naturally ordered avoiding full black
- light and dark colors are distinct from each other
- all colors look good on background, black, dark gray, gray, white
We use this for all the screenshots on https://ratatui.rs and https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui
It's available from the usual places https://iterm2colorschemes.com/, https://windowsterminalthemes.dev/?theme=Aardvark%20Blue, built in to ghostty, extension for vscode etc.
