Day Shift Theme

Introduction

This theme's main goal is to provide a dark, readable & clean experience into your favorite code editor.

In order to stay soft to the eyes, it uses a desaturated color palette and uses only bold characters for function names as they are what describes your code the better.

Visit Day Shift website for more info.
