Color scheme for Android Studio and IntelliJ, inspired by code snippets style seen on Google Developers website

Google Developers color scheme

This color scheme brings the color scheme seen on Google Developers website to Android Studio, and IntelliJ IDEA.

I like this one because it's a both light and colorful color scheme, and I made it show in favorite IDE.

Usage

This color scheme works better with a light Look & Feel (default on Mac OS X). To add it to your IDE, just hit File>Import Settings in your IDE, and select the file you can download below. To apply it, go under Editor>Color & Fonts in the Settings window.

Compatibility

This color scheme works starting from version 1.5.1 of Android Studio, and has also been tested on version 2.0 beta.

It has not been tested on other Jetbrains IDEs such as IntelliJ, Webstorm, PhpStorm, etc, but should be compatible with recent versions as of early 2016 January.

Download

Version 1.0.1 is available here. You can see the changelogs in the releases tab.

Screenshots

Which font on the screenshots?

I have been asked the font I use. It's Roboto Mono by Google Design.

It looks very well including on Windows (if the font size isn't too small), even if font anti-aliasing isn't working properly. Note that I'm using Apple's JDK 6 to run Android Studio, and JDK 1.8 for Android Development itself.

Why a light color scheme?

A light color scheme will reduce eyestrain, compared to a dark one. Why? On a dark background, your eyes will adapt to low light conditions, so your pupils will open wide to let more light enter your eye. Fine. But the bright text on the dark background will burn your retina (not forever hopefully) as more light is allowed to enter your eye, which will cause eyestrain after extended watching. On a light background, your eyes don't allow that much light to go in your eyes, but you'll still see where the light is missing, i.e. the text.

Cannot read scheme Google Developers.icls

Improving comment colors in XML

Hey,
Currently, for line comment color in Java code is #ec4c7a. But for XML, comment color is #000000.

Suggestion: If we change XML comment color to #ec4c7a, it will look better than before.

Why package names fonts are different? Some are plain text, bold or italic. Is it on purpose?

There's missing spaces in the README titles. I should fix that soon.

Write a Sublime Text version of the scheme

Hello @LouisCAD,

I'd love to collaborate with you on exporting this scheme as a SBT3 theme, or maybe something that can be added to the ColorSublime theme repository. I liked it very much...

Publish the Kotlin update

It's been more than a year I use it, I should update this repo

Actually not a issue

I was wondering if we can also have or where we can find the dark color scheme of google as shown in dark mode
