What's your favorite Editor theme?

I'm an Atom fanatic even though it consumes a lot of RAM πŸ˜‚. So what's your favorite Atom theme?

I used atom-material-ui previously.

I'm currently using GitHub light.

An editor theme consumes a lot of RAM? That seems troubling.

I think he meant Atom consumes a lot of RAM. Although you got me thinking...

I'm rolling with obsidian in Vim. Works pretty good, especially for Python development

I use the Material Theme in Sublime! (It might be available in Atom as well.)

Looks pretty nice in my opinion:

Not sure if it's my favorite, but I used Solarized Dark for a long time. Currently using One Dark theme on VS Code and my terminal (iTerm2). Both themes are available on Atom and for VS Code (and probably Sublime).

I love Solarized Dark. It is also nice how many tools support it. I like a consistent look accross editors, terminals, etc.

I prefer dark themes, so

Atom: Seti-UI and Seti-syntax

Atom Seti-UI

I like it so much it almost made me skip switching to VS Code, but I switched anyway.

VS Code: Electron

I tend to change it up from time to time. My editor of choice is VS Code and I'm currently using Wes Bos's Cobalt2 Theme.

The theme I was using before this one was Dracula .

I'm all about the dark themes. Monokai, Darcula, Blackboard. Currently really enjoying Blackboard.

I won't lie, I really dislike Solarized.

mhhh.....nice question...for example I tried to use atom 1 years ago, but it consumes a lot of RAM. Then I discovered VSCode and today I use it for scripting and data scientist...I think my theme is "Nightingale"

I am using ayu-dark for vim. Works great, is very beautiful and elegant.

I really like the City Lights suite from Yummygum! It can improve in a couple areas but they aren't significant issues. They have it for both Atom and VS Code too!

Looks similar to Nova (trevordmiller.com/projects/nova). But font colors are a bit more bright. Looks nice. I'm going to try it out. Shame there ain't a VSC icon pack.
Update: Double shame the author hasn't publish that theme to the VSC extension store. I don't like filling my computer with git repos all over the place and having to check for updates manually.

I use VSCode and created my own theme, Plastic. You can find it here: plastic.wstone.io/

It’s loosely based on Atom’s One Dark theme, a little darker, with a simpler colour configuration.
