🌠🌌 Starry 🌌🌠

A collection of colorschemes for neovim (Neovim 8.0+ required), written in lua. This first version of starry plugin was built based on

• material.nvim

Following colorschemes were added later on:

• Moonlight (Low contrast bluish clean and elegant color theme)
• Dracula & Dracula_blood theme
• Monokai (Based on Sublime Build 3)
• Mariana (The latest Sublime (Build 4) builtin color scheme) and Mariana_lighter
• Emerald (Low contrast green color scheme)
• Middlenight_blue (The theme to use in middle night)
• Earlysummer (more vivid colors) and Earlysummer_lighter
• Darksolar (dark solarized)
• Ukraine yellow text on blue background

Why this repo:

• All-In-One
• Better color contrast and easy for eyes tuning for material.nvim and moonlight.nvim
• Colorscheme color random loading (loading from Deep ocean, Oceanic, Palenight, Lighter, Darker, moonlight, dracula, monokai, mariana, emerald, middlenight_blue, earlysummer randomly )
• Built with latest neovim API
• Tracking latest neovim/lsp/treesitter highlight updates. e.g. NormalFloat, FloatShadow, LspReferenceRead/Write
• Random loading
• Daylight mode, tune the color for daytime
• Transparent background ready
