Cannot get the solarized theme on neovim on Alacritty (or Kitty) on Linux #220

Open garret opened 3 years ago

I would like to have the solarized color scheme only in neovim when using the terminal on Linux. I use Alacritty as main terminal but I have the exact same issue with Kitty for instance. In particular, I am using the default settings of Alacritty and neovim (in this last case I just added some plugins).

Before installing the solarized color scheme, this is how my vim appears: image

I copied the solarized.vim file into $HOME/.config/nvim/colors/ and this is the result: image

I also added the let g:solarized_termcolors=256 line but still doesn't really help: image

Do you know if there is a way to solve the issue?

Try either https://github.com/lifepillar/vim-solarized8 or https://github.com/frankier/neovim-colors-solarized-truecolor-only

You should change your terminal theme to solarized. And also, don't set the solarized_termcolors to 256, it's a fallback color, not the original solarized colors

In my original post I explain that I want solarized in vim but another color scheme for my terminal (alacritty).

I encountered the same issue. Just setting Kitty to use solarized fixes the colors
