🌌 A vibrant cyberpunk color system for your entire dev environment. 🎆
⚡ Quick Start · 💜 Neovim · 🎨 Variants · 🌃 Full Ecosystem · 📖 Documentation
One palette, one semantic system, five intensity variants, every tool in your workflow. SilkCircuit themes editors, terminals, browsers, system monitors, and CLI tools with consistent colors and WCAG AA contrast ratios across the board.
| Category | Targets |
|---|---|
| 💻 Editors | Neovim (39 plugin integrations), VS Code (Marketplace), AstroNvim, Helix |
| 🖥️ Terminals | Ghostty, Kitty, Alacritty, WezTerm, foot, iTerm2, Warp, Windows Terminal |
| 🪟 Multiplexers | tmux, Zellij |
| 🌐 Browsers | Chrome (Web Store, 5 variants + DevTools CSS) |
| 🔧 CLI Tools | btop, K9s, lazygit, bat, fzf, lsd, procs, atuin, Starship |
| ⚙️ System | COSMIC Desktop, fastfetch, dmesg |
| 🎯 Other | Git (delta integration), Slack, Lualine |
Five intensity levels, all using the same underlying palette:
| Variant | Style | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| ⚡ Neon | 100% saturated | Maximum vibrancy |
| 🔮 Vibrant | 85% intensity | Balanced energy |
| 🌸 Soft | 70% intensity | Extended sessions |
| 🌌 Glow | Ultra-dark bg, pure neon fg | Low-light / OLED |
| 🌅 Dawn | Light theme | Daytime & bright rooms |
The fastest way to theme everything at once. It detects your installed tools, drops each theme where that tool looks for it, prints the one line that turns it on, and backs up anything it replaces:
git clone https://github.com/hyperb1iss/silkcircuit.git
cd silkcircuit
./install.sh --dry-run # see what it would touch
./install.sh # all five variants, side by side
./install.sh --variant glowgit clone https://github.com/hyperb1iss/silkcircuit.git
cd silkcircuit

colorscheme silkcircuit💎 VS Code
Install from the VS Code Marketplace, or:
code --install-extension hyperb1iss.silkcircuit-theme🌐 Chrome
Available on the Chrome Web Store (all 5 variants), or load unpacked:
make chrome
# chrome://extensions/ → Developer mode → Load unpacked
# Select: extras/chrome-theme/silkcircuit-{variant}/🖥️ Terminals
Every terminal ships all five variants, rendered from the same palette Neovim uses. The terminal guide has the install line for each one.
🔧 CLI Tools
Every tool below ships all five variants. The extras guide has a page per tool with the exact enable line; these are the copies.

require("silkcircuit").setup({

neotree = true,

},
})All 39 integrations are defined up front, whether or not the plugin is installed, so nothing waits on detection. Turn one off with integrations.<name> = false.

SilkCircuit extends far beyond your editor. The extras guide has a page per tool with the install path and the line that turns it on, and extras/README.md is the same thing next to the files.

🤔 Neovim theme not loading? Requires Neovim 0.10+ with vim.opt.termguicolors = true. Run :checkhealth silkcircuit.
🎭 Colors look wrong? Your terminal must support true colors (24-bit). Try a different terminal emulator if unsure.
🏎️ Performance issues? Set vim.g.silkcircuit_debug = true and restart to print the measured load time. Anything well over 5ms is worth an issue with your plugin list.
💭 Need help? Open an issue with your config and error output.
