Zenbones

A collection of Vim/Neovim colorschemes designed to highlight code using contrasts and font variations. Colors are tasked only for other roles such as diagnostics, diffs, search matches.

It is carefully crafted for extensibility. You can create your own zenbones-based colorscheme or try the built-in collection.

Requirement

  • Neovim v0.8.0 (use v2.0.0 for older versions) or Vim 8.1

Recommended setup

  • Neovim with true colors support i.e. set termguicolors. Vim works but only in compatibility mode.
  • Font with bold and italic
  • Terminal or GUI with bold and italic support

Installation

Example installation using packer:

use {
    "mcchrish/zenbones.nvim",
    -- Optionally install Lush. Allows for more configuration or extending the colorscheme
    -- If you don't want to install lush, make sure to set g:zenbones_compat = 1
    -- In Vim, compat mode is turned on as Lush only works in Neovim.
    requires = "rktjmp/lush.nvim"
}

Usage

Just apply the colorscheme as usual:

set termguicolors
set background=light " or dark

It's also possible to generate any color configuration files using shipwright, this one for Kitty for example. Please feel free to submit a PR if you want to add some more.

Inspirations

Zenbones is heavily inspired by Verdandi and vim-yin-yang. The name came from a book called Zen Flesh, Zen Bones.
