Dark+ (Elixir), which does a much better job than the default Dark+ for elixir files, and behaves the same as Dark+ for everything else: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=kkalita.dark-plus-elixir

Synthwave vs Flouromachine.

Because life’s too short to not code at 4am listening to agressive Synthwave while trying to remember the GenServer API.

For some reason I can’t stand anything other than One Dark Pro (which comes from Atom).

I keep trying other dark themes but always come back.

If you run Ctrl+Shift+P: “Developer: Inspect TM Scopes” you can see what scopes are defined on each piece of syntax in the file:

screenshot-inspect-doc-comment668×622 57.9 KB

screenshot-inspect-comment853×570 62.2 KB

So we have comment.documentation.heredoc.elixir, comment.documentation.string, and comment.line.number-sign.elixir.

So if we want to change the documentation comments back to their default style (for the Default Dark+ theme) we can add this to our settings.json:

{
    "editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
        "comments": {
            "foreground": "#FF0000",
            "fontStyle": "bold"
        },
        "textMateRules": [
            {
                "scope": "comment.documentation",
                "settings": {
                    "foreground": "#6A9955",
                    "fontStyle": ""
                }
            }
        ]
    }
}

Now this looks like:

And if you wanted to target specifically single-line or multi-line documentation you could target comment.documentation.heredoc or comment.documentation.string instead of just comment.documentation.

Since this thread is getting bumped, I should mention that I’ve released a new theme called Tol. It began as a project to make my Yarra Valley theme more color-accessible, but I liked the result so much that I ended up switching to it full time:
