color scheme

description

Screenshots: https://github.com/sainnhe/sonokai Introduction: Sometimes I need a high contrast color scheme, and I think monokai is one of the best solutions, it's very beautiful and vivid. However there is one thing I can't stand -- the contrast is too high, which is totally unacceptable for me. This color scheme is based on [Monokai Pro](https://monokai.pro/vscode), the contrast is adjusted to be a bit lower while keeping the colors vivid enough. The `shusia`, `maia` and `espresso` variants are basically modified versions of Monokai Pro. I'm not going to port all variants of Monokai Pro because I don't like some of them. In addition, I designed some new variants inspired by other color schemes. Features: 1. High contrast but within acceptable range. 2. Vivid colors. 3. Highly customizable. 4. Rich support for common file types and plugins. 5. Semantic highlighting support. 6. Tree-sitter support. 7. [Italic support](https://github.com/sainnhe/icursive-nerd-font) 🎉 See `:help sonokai.txt` for more information.
