An optimized theme for web development that comes with two versions: light & dark.
Presentation
Coldark is a gray-blue theme. The colors used respect the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) in order to provide sufficient reading comfort. However, with opacity, it is possible that some contrasts are diminished and that they are above level AA.
This Coldark version is designed for bat command.
Color pallets
Coldark consists of three color pallets. The first is common to both versions. The other two each apply to a version.
The bat version uses almost the same colors as VS code version. The scopes seems a little different and a little less complete, hence the difference.
