## Install
### Via the VS Code Marketplace
- Go to the [marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SreetamD.karma).
- Click on the **Install** button.
- Wait for the extension to be installed.
- Select a variant: Dark (default) or Light. Alternatively, you can also use VS Code's `autoDetectColorScheme` to enable theme switch based on your OS color scheme by adding the following snippet to your `settings.json`:
```json
"window.autoDetectColorScheme": true,
"workbench.preferredDarkColorTheme": "Karma",
"workbench.preferredLightColorTheme": "Karma Light",
"workbench.colorTheme": "Karma",
```
### From within VS Code
- Go to `Preferences > Color Theme`.
- Search for _Karma_ or _Karma Light_.
Alternatively:
- Go to the "Extensions" view, via `Preferences > Extensions`.
- Search for _Karma_.
If you want the "legacy" _Karma_ theme, it's available as _Karma Legacy_ 🙂
## Recommended setup
For the best, recommended experience use the following:
- [Iosevka font](https://typeof.net/Iosevka/)
- with the settings (you can paste these in your `settings.json`):
```json
{
"breadcrumbs.enabled": true,
"editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": true,
"editor.cursorStyle": "block",
"editor.fontFamily": "'Iosevka', monospace",
"editor.fontLigatures": true,
"editor.fontSize": 13,
"editor.guides.bracketPairs": true,
"editor.guides.bracketPairsHorizontal": "active",
"editor.minimap.enabled": false, // disable minimap
"editor.renderLineHighlight": "all",
"git.mergeEditor": false,
"terminal.integrated.fontFamily": "'Iosevka Term'",
"terminal.integrated.fontSize": 13,
"workbench.activityBar.visible": false, // hide activity bar
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"[Karma]": {
"editorLineNumber.foreground": "#333333"
}
},
"window.autoDetectColorScheme": true, // to enable auto theme switch based on OS color scheme
"workbench.preferredDarkColorTheme": "Karma",
"workbench.preferredLightColorTheme": "Karma Light",
"workbench.colorTheme": "Karma",
"workbench.panel.defaultLocation": "right", // place the default panel (terminal etc.) on the right
"workbench.settings.editor": "json",
"workbench.sideBar.location": "right", // place the sidebar on the right
"terminal.integrated.minimumContrastRatio": 1 // on certain themes, the color gets altered by VS Code for contrast, disable this to use Karma colors
}
```
## Overrides
To override this theme in your personal config file, please follow the guide in the [VS Code color theme documentation](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/extension-guides/color-theme). You could do something like this:
```json
// settings.json
{
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
// So that this change is only for the Karma theme
"[Karma]": {
"editorLineNumber.foreground": "#333333"
}
}
},
```
## Issues
#### Terminal colors look weird!
This is because the [integrated terminal in VS Code has a minimum contrast ratio which dynamically changes the foreground color](https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_66#_minimum-contrast-ratio-default-changed). This causes some foreground colors in _Karma Light_ to be shown differently. You can add the following to your `settings.json` to override this:
```json
"terminal.integrated.minimumContrastRatio": 1
```
## Development
Wanna try out customizing and contributing to _Karma_? Thanks! Here's how:
- Fork and clone this repository
- This project uses [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/)—make sure you've [installed and set it up](https://pnpm.io/installation) correctly!
- Install all the dependencies—these allow us to "hot reload" the theme during development.
```sh
pnpm i
```
- Run the following command to start the `dev` script
```sh
pnpm run dev
```
- Open this project in VS Code, and then go to `Run > Start Bebugging` or simply hit `F5`.
This opens up another instance of VS Code, with the "dev" version of _Karma_! You can edit the color tokens in `src/tokens.ts` or change individual theme color variables in `src/generateTheme.ts`. Please make sure to use the [VS Code Theme Color reference](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/theme-color)!
## Credits
_Karma_ is inspired by a mix of [Ayu](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=teabyii.ayu), Lucy and [Andromeda](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=EliverLara.andromeda) themes. In addition, while starting work on the v3 release and on the lookout for a way to generate complimentary themes with tokens, I took heavy inspiration from [GitHub's VS Code themes](https://github.com/primer/github-vscode-theme).
The font used in all screenshots is [Iosevka](https://typeof.net/Iosevka/). If you're interested in knowing more about my setup/what I use, head on over to [sreetamdas.com/uses](https://sreetamdas.com/uses)!
If you like _Karma_, thanks a lot! It truly means a lot to me. A 🌟star on the repository would be super cool! :)
