    🌲 Comfortable & Pleasant Color Scheme for Vim

    (Full disclosure: initially I wanted to go with "top 5 Neovim color schemes" which would have included sainnhe/everforest as fifth one. But although its colors are sooooooo nice, it is quite different in terms of which attributes it defines for certain highlight groups. Including it instead of 'projekt0n/github-nvim-theme' resulted in not very coherent output. So in the end it was decided to take "top 5 Lua color schemes".)
