🗺️ Roadmap

Since I can't find a job and have nothing else to do now and I really really like this theme, I will actively maintain this branch.

• Support light theme
• Dynamically generate accent colors that just simply darker or lighter
• Find a way to change options in running
• Add option to adjust contrast
• Add option to adjust base brightness
• Port the 256 color mode from the original vim theme

Also, I will continue to add plug-in support. If anyone has any ideas, please feel free to report issues.

🙏 Thanks

This fork is based on the work of shaunsingh which is also based off of the seoul256 Theme for Vim , thanks to them for bringing this beautiful theme to NeoVim.
