I love the Solarized Dark theme, I use it everywhere. I use Sublime Text 3 as my default editor, and over the years I have been slowly tweaking the color_scheme
to better suite my tastes. The default light colored drawer didn't work for me, so I wrote a theme
to match my color_scheme
. I hope you enjoy...
Clone to:
/Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/Theme-SolarizedSwill
Enable by navigating to:
Sublime Text > Preferences > Color Schemes > Theme-SolarizedSwill > SolarizedSwill
Clone to:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Packages\Theme-SolarizedSwill
Enable by navigating to:
Sublime Text > Preferences > Color Schemes > Theme-SolarizedSwill > SolarizedSwill
You may notice that inside Theme-SolarizedSwill
there is both SolarizedSwill
and SolarizedDark
as options. The SolarizedDark
color scheme is the standard version which most of you are probably familiar with. I included it in case you prefer that color_scheme
.
Since this is the only Solarized Dark theme
available to match the drawer and tabs with the color_scheme
, I expect people will likely use it as a starting point for modifications.
With this in mind, I chose to override the Default.sublime-theme
for the following reasons:
- By not creating a full theme, I can override only the pieces I care about, making the file easier to customize and understand.
- Simplifies the installation process because it is picked up automatically if it is present.
The only downside of customizing the Default.sublime-theme
file is that the change is global. If you change to a different color scheme, the tabs and drawer will remain themed to match the SolarizedSwill
color scheme. You will have to rename that file to undo the change.
