Gruvbox is heavily inspired by badwolf (https://github.com/sjl/badwolf), jellybeans (https://github.com/nanotech/jellybeans.vim) and solarized (http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized).

Designed as a bright theme with pastel 'retro groove' colors and light/dark mode switching in the way of solarized. The main focus when developing Gruvbox is to keep colors easily distinguishable, contrast enough and still pleasant for the eyes.

Screenshots
-----------

Color scheme is in early development stage, so this could serve as working preview.

Features
--------

* Distraction-free HTML highlighting
* Hand-tuned plugin-specific highlighting for EasyMotion(https://github.com/Lokaltog/vim-easymotion), Better Rainbow Parentheses(https://github.com/kien/rainbow_parentheses.vim) and Indent Guides(https://github.com/nathanaelkane/vim-indent-guides)

Usage
-----

gruvbox comes in two modes, dark and light. To toggle between them with F5 you can add these to your .vimrc

map <F5> :call ToggleBg()<CR>
function! ToggleBg()
if &background == 'dark'
set bg=light
else
set bg=dark
endif
endfunc

Just setting background to an appropriate value would work as well

set bg=dark    \" Setting dark mode
set bg=light   \" Setting light mode

ToDo
----

* Terminal low-color mode (less than 256)
* More fyletype specific highlighting
* Customizable options (overrides, background switch, etc.)
* Powerline colors
