Switch to light background

How to switch to light background. Changing theme just has dark backgrounds.

Most themes are dark but you can use Ingrid which is a light theme. https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/Themes

Ingrid is a bad theme. Is there no other light theme. I tried all of em. Maybe there isn't.

I find this a bit mean to the original contributor that took the time and effort to port the Ingrid theme.

All themes under runtime/themes are user contributed, you can port your preferred theme using the docs here.

What's your current theme elsewhere? It should be easy to port :)

" Themes light and dark both supported.
Plug 'morhetz/gruvbox'
Plug 'nightsense/snow'
Plug 'cocopon/iceberg.vim'
Plug 'junegunn/seoul256.vim'
Plug 'nightsense/stellarized'
Plug 'nightsense/cosmic_latte'
Plug 'NLKNguyen/papercolor-theme'
Plug 'chriskempson/vim-tomorrow-theme'

Anyways It is a nice idea to keep themes inside the editor itself. I hope y'all keep only a few, nice, eye-friendly themes. Plugins really make a mess.

Currently the themes are written by contributors themselves, so if you see a theme in the contrib, it's probably used by someone. Maybe you can try writing a theme, for me at least one of the theme is good enough for me.
