Made for long sessions

Low-glare backgrounds and silver-cool text keep contrast legible without the glare. Warm accents appear only where meaning lives.

The palette

Twenty-one colors, one sky

Click a syntax color to spotlight it in the live sample. Click a background to repaint the editor. Every value copies to your clipboard.

Legible by design

Contrast that holds up

Measured WCAG contrast on the base background, not guessed. Text and accents clear AA and AAA; comments sit deliberately quiet.

Yours to tune

Sensible defaults, full control

Pass only what you want to change. Two hooks, on_colors and on_highlights, let you reshape the palette or override any group.

Transparent

Let your terminal background show through floats and statusline.

require("sora").setup({ transparent = true, })

Italics, your call

Keep them everywhere, drop them for comments, or turn them all off.

setup({ italic = false }) -- or comments only: setup({ italic_comments = false })

OLED black

Repaint the palette before highlights build with on_colors.

on_colors = function(c) c.bg = "#000000" end

Override any group

on_highlights runs last and wins over everything.

on_highlights = function(hl, c) hl.Comment = { fg = c.teal } end

Sora everywhere

One palette, every surface

The editor is only the start. Terminals, prompts, pagers, and note-takers all ship in extras/. Click any command to copy it.
