Adapt for Elixir/Elm Support #123

Closed gerred closed 7 years ago

gerred commented 8 years ago

Hi! I'm wanting to adapt to support these two languages officially. I'm happy to submit a PR for this.

Is there an objective approach to this wrt Solarized, or is this more of a "adjust until things look right" approach?

jkaving commented 8 years ago

It would be great if you added support for these languages!

The process so far has been to first look at the examples on http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized and try to match them as much as possible. And then, using only the Solarized colors, use the "adjust until things look right" method :-)

There is no overarching principles for which colors to use for which kinds of syntactic elements.

I'm also after Elm colours, how'd you go with creating them @gerred?
