About
Fluent OLED strips the editor down to what matters: your code. Core surfaces are pure black (#000000) for OLED/AMOLED displays, with subtle grayscale chrome and a GitHub-inspired syntax palette.
Features
- ⬛ True OLED black UI across editor, panels, tabs, title bar, status bar, and terminal
- 🎨 GitHub-like syntax palette with clear, low-noise contrast
- 🔘 Monochrome chrome so color emphasis stays in code and functional states
- 📉 Minimal visual noise with subdued borders and restrained highlights
- ⚡ Power-friendly on OLED by maximizing true black surfaces
