Don't look down! 🚠
If you look down, you might miss out on some code getting inserted by your quick caffeine induced coding fingers! I would be a real shame if that happens when you are not in the mode for it. 🤦
I made this plugin so I could see which mode Neovim is in just by the color of CursorLine and CursorLineNr.

opts = {
-- you can set different blend values for your different modes.
-- Some colours might look better more dark, so set a higher value
-- will result in a darker shade.

-- there are two ways to define colours for the different modes.
-- one way is to define theme here in colors. Another way is to
-- set them up with highlight groups. Any highlight group set takes
-- precedence over any colours defined here.

-- disable filetypes here. Add for example "TelescopePrompt" to
-- not have any coloured cursorline for the telescope prompt.
disabled_filetypes = { "TelescopePrompt" },
-- you can turn on or off bold characters for the line numbers
bold_nr = true,
-- you can turn on and off a feature which shows a little icon and
-- registry number at the end of the CursorLine, for when you are
-- recording a macro! Default is false.
recording = {
enabled = false,
icon = "",
-- you can set some text to surround the recording registry char with
-- or just set one to empty to maybe have just one letter, an arrow
-- perhaps! For example recording to q, you could have! " q" :D
pre_registry_text = "[",
post_registry_text = "]",

},
}Define your HL groups within your colorscheme. For example like this, in catppuccin highlight_overrides
Or set the colours in opts passed to setup
{
NormalMoody = { fg = C.blue },
InsertMoody = { fg = C.green },
VisualMoody = { fg = C.pink },
CommandMoody = { fg = C.maroon },
OperatorMoody = { fg = C.maroon },
ReplaceMoody = { fg = C.red },
SelectMoody = { fg = C.pink },
TerminalMoody = { fg = C.mauve },
TerminalNormalMoody = { fg = C.mauve },
}Theres not a lot of values to set, but these are the defaults:

normal = 0.2,
insert = 0.2,
visual = 0.2,
command = 0.2,
operator = 0.2,
replace = 0.2,
select = 0.2,
terminal = 0.2,
terminal_n = 0.2,
},
-- will be overruled if HL groups are set
