Colours

Colours are taken from the iTerm2 Slate.

Most are left alone from the original Plastic scheme, but may get adjusted in the future.

This theme also includes colour changes to the Integrated Terminal to keep it in line with the colour source.

Contribute

Themes can always be improved and tweaked so please feel free to log issues and send pull requests. However, please keep in mind that this theme strives to remain simple and language agnostic; for example, please do not ask for blah.blah.php or blah.blah.c scopes to be added.

Fork specific note: Some changes are better left to upstream Plastic, and merged into this repo. Color modifications, documentation, and tooling are the only pull requests recommended here.

Clone the repository to .vscode/extenstions/(remember to remove any other installed versions of Plastic Slate), run yarn to install dependencies, and yarn docs to serve the documentation page.

Use Microsoft's theme color reference for UI theming help.

You'll notice that the syntax is grouped by colour instead of scope. I find this much nicer to maintain.

Happy hacking :)

Lack of contrast for comments in diff

Hi!
I love using your theme, thank you for creating and sharing it!

I have an edge case though, that could use some love. The color of the comments is very hard to read in diffs, there's no contrast on the green or red background in the edit:

Can I suggest to use a lighter grey for the font color of comments?
