Adopt workbench themes

[joaomoreno]

Hey, VS Code dev here. I love these themes!

VS Code Workbench theming is now in preview, but we can already start using it. I would love to get these themes working across the whole workbench.

Let me know if you'll accept a PR.

I've started adding custom theme colors for the entire workbench for the Ayu Dark theme. Let me know if you're interested in a PR! Note that it's a work in progress.

Looks great, although the lack of contrast between the background of the different parts is kind of strange.

[pahen]

Yes, I agree. But the goal is to have it as close as the original Sublime Text theme as possible. But there's still elements that can't be themed to achieve that now. Mostly lack of border theming. And the issue microsoft/vscode#25774 created by me.

Awesome! was checking if this would be added. Good to see you are already working on it!

Nice, you are welcome. @pahen

Here's a gist if someone want to test it: https://gist.github.com/pahen/d435d91d21c7b3556c156e5618b7dd3d

Just put it in your settings. I'll create a PR once the theming API in vscode is satisfying enough :)

I'm making progress on all 3 versions (light, mirage, and dark). Screenshots coming soon! :)

I have been using the Dark theme you posted in the gist for the last two days. Looking very good have not run in to any bugs. Will also test the other versions when you are ready

[pahen]

The themes starting to get really useful now :) But there's still a couple of things to fix. Here's a VSIX package if you want to install it and test https://www.dropbox.com/s/eyg6l692fd73fju/vscode-ayu-0.3.0.vsix?dl=1. Uninstall the current Ayu theme first. And remember to remove any custom colors in workbench.colorCustomizations if you have them in your settings.

Light

Dark

Mirage

Pretty cool. I'd love to get some contrast between the sidebar and the editor, even if only a slight dim border.
