A dark and light Neovim theme written in Lua forked from TokyoNight, which is ported from the Visual Studio Code Tokyonight theme.
- Supports the latest Neovim 0.10.0 features.
- Enhances terminal colors.
- Introduces a darker background option for sidebar-like windows.
- Supports all major plugins.
Install the theme with your preferred package manager, such as folke/lazy.nvim:
{
"karshPrime/tokyoburn.nvim",
lazy = false,
priority = 1000,
opts = {},
}colorscheme tokyoburn
" There are also colorschemes for the different styles.
colorscheme tokyoburn-night
colorscheme tokyoburn-storm
colorscheme tokyoburn-day
colorscheme tokyoburn-moonvim.cmd[[colorscheme tokyoburn]]-- Lua
require('barbecue').setup {
-- ... your barbecue config
theme = 'tokyoburn',
-- ... your barbecue config
}-- Lua
require('lualine').setup {
options = {
-- ... your lualine config
theme = 'tokyoburn'
-- ... your lualine config
}
}" Vim Script
let g:lightline = {'colorscheme': 'tokyoburn'}❗️ Set the configuration BEFORE loading the color scheme with
colorscheme tokyoburn.
The theme offers four styles: storm, moon, night, and day.
The day style is used when { style = "day" } is passed to
setup(options) or when vim.o.background = "light".
TokyoBurn uses the default options,
unless setup is explicitly called.
require("tokyoburn").setup({
-- your configuration comes here
-- or leave it empty to use the default settings
style = "storm", -- The theme comes in three styles, `storm`, `moon`, a darker variant `burn` and `day`
light_style = "day", -- The theme is used when the background is set to light
transparent = false, -- Enable this to disable setting the background color
terminal_colors = true, -- Configure the colors used when opening a `:terminal` in [Neovim](https://github.com/neovim/neovim)
styles = {
-- Style to be applied to different syntax groups
-- Value is any valid attr-list value for `:help nvim_set_hl`
comments = { italic = true },
keywords = { italic = true },
functions = {},
variables = {},
-- Background styles. Can be "dark", "transparent" or "normal"
sidebars = "dark", -- style for sidebars, see below
floats = "dark", -- style for floating windows
},
sidebars = { "qf", "help" }, -- Set a darker background on sidebar-like windows. For example: `["qf", "vista_kind", "terminal", "packer"]`
day_brightness = 0.3, -- Adjusts the brightness of the colors of the **Day** style. Number between 0 and 1, from dull to vibrant colors
hide_inactive_statusline = false, -- Enabling this option, will hide inactive statuslines and replace them with a thin border instead. Should work with the standard **StatusLine** and **LuaLine**.
dim_inactive = false, -- dims inactive windows
lualine_bold = false, -- When `true`, section headers in the lualine theme will be bold
--- You can override specific color groups to use other groups or a hex color
--- function will be called with a ColorScheme table
---@param colors ColorScheme
on_colors = function(colors) end,
--- You can override specific highlights to use other groups or a hex color
--- function will be called with a Highlights and ColorScheme table
---@param highlights Highlights
---@param colors ColorScheme
on_highlights = function(highlights, colors) end,
})How the highlight groups are calculated:
colorsare determined based on your configuration, with the ability to override them usingconfig.on_colors(colors).- These
colorsare utilized to generate the highlight groups. config.on_highlights(highlights, colors)can be used to override highlight groups.
For default values of colors and highlights, please consult the
storm,
moon,
night, and
day themes.
require("tokyoburn").setup({
-- use the night style
style = "night",
-- disable italic for functions
styles = {
functions = {}
},
sidebars = { "qf", "vista_kind", "terminal", "packer" },
-- Change the "hint" color to the "orange" color, and make the "error" color bright red
on_colors = function(colors)
colors.hint = colors.orange
colors.error = "#ff0000"
end

})Fix undercurls in Tmux
To have undercurls show up and in color, add the following to your Tmux configuration file:
# Undercurl
set -g default-terminal "${TERM}"
set -as terminal-overrides ',*:Smulx=\E[4::%p1%dm' # undercurl support
set -as terminal-overrides ',*:Setulc=\E[58::2::%p1%{65536}%/%d::%p1%{256}%/%{255}%&%d::%p1%{255}%&%d%;m' # underscore colours - needs tmux-3.0Pull requests are welcome.
For the extras, we use a simple template system that can be used to generate themes for the different styles.
How to add a new extra template:
-
Create a file like
lua/tokyoburn/extra/cool-app.lua. -
Add the name and output file extension to the
extrastable inlua/tokyoburn/extra/init.lua. -
Run the following command to generate new extra themes from the tokyoburn plugin directory:
nvim --headless "+lua require('tokyoburn.extra').setup()" +qa -
Check the newly created themes in the
extra/directory. Please DO NOT commit them, as they are already automatically built by the CI.
