About Ayu
Website • Install • Screenshots • Ports
ayu is a bright color theme and comes in three versions — _dark_, _mirage_, and _light_ — for all-day comfortable work. Handcrafted for Visual Studio Code.
Install
Install from the Marketplace, or run:
Then go to Preferences > Color Theme and select one of the Ayu variants.
To enable file icons: Preferences > File Icon Theme > Ayu.
Unbordered themes
Each variant also comes as Unbordered: no dividers between the side bar, editor, panel, title bar and status bar, so the whole window reads as one surface. In VS Code's modern UI the panels sit flush instead of floating as separate islands.
