# yo-theme-helix
A [Helix][helix] theme inspired by [Zenbones][zenbones] &
[Alabaster][alabaster]. Uses [Radix Colors][radix].
### Notes
- Ideas from alabaster.
- Comments should stand out.
- Use color sparingly. The rules should be simple.
- avoid font variants where possible.
- Alabaster essentially only higlights comments/constants and strings.
- It doesn't highlight keywords (reserved words) or types. (which to be fair isn't really an issue for
clojure)
- Yo doesn't go quite as far on this point.
- Instead it takes the minimal zenbones approach to highlight the remaining code.
- subtle colors & contrast.
- vibrant colors are left for diagnostics.
- The default yo themes use the following:
- **Green** for strings (same as alabaster)
- **Purple** for constant (same as alabaster)
- **Blue** for info (comments & LSP info/hints)
- **Red/Amber** LSP error/warnings
- **Gray/Bronze** Everything else zenbones style
- I'm not a designer and don't like my chances of making something look good by
tweaking colors so instead i'll let the pros handle it.
- [Radix Colors][radix] are very well deisgned. with clear instructions for
how to apply them.
- Designed for **automatic light/dark mode**.
- Variants.
- It should be straightforward to use helix theme inheritance to swap out the
default color palette with other radix color combinations without losing the
principles of the theme.
