Description

Hey folks!
We've been working on a refresh for the editor colors. Previously, we had semantic highlighting with lots of distinct colors. Now we're trying something simpler: 4-5 base colors for a cleaner, more consistent look.

Your thoughts?

  • did advanced syntax highlighting add a lot of value for you?
  • which elements do you think must stay highlighted (e.g., keywords, strings, numbers)?
  • any suggestions for improving the new palette?
