  • alacritty

    A cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator.

  • I really like the alacritty terminal and I needed to find a color style that works for me. I ended up with something like this:

  • vim-dim

    Dim (/dɪm/; a contraction of Default IMproved) is a clone of Vim’s default colorscheme, with some improvements. (by casonadams)

  • I created a color theme for vim based off vim-dim

  • InfluxDB

  • vim-plug

    :hibiscus: Minimalist Vim Plugin Manager

  • Using vim-plug I load the plugin like this:

  • fzf

    :cherry_blossom: A command-line fuzzy finder

  • I use fzf and bat for fuzzy searching to set it to use ANSI colors do the following in a bashrc or zshrc file.

  • bat

    A cat(1) clone with wings.

  • tmux

  • Modifying tmux doesn't need to happen, but this is a fun trick to add using this color idea.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
