Adapt to Syntax themes? #1

Open simurai opened 8 years ago

simurai commented 8 years ago

Should this UI theme also adapt to syntax themes by using the syntax variables as a base? Like the One themes and others do it.

Pro: It would look much better because the current dark grey rarely matches any syntax's theme background color.

Con: On the other hand, the purpose of this theme is to make it as easy as possible for beginners to get started. Without any fancy stuff. So not sure.

What if this was a checkbox option in the theme's settings?

simurai commented 8 years ago

Ya, maybe. The initial idea of this template is to be as simple as possible. More for people starting out and trying to create their first theme. Having an option in the settings might make it more complex.

Well true but it might also give them an example, a starting point on how to implement options for their themes. I'm not saying it should be implemented, I'm just giving a counter argument :)
