It's always more pleasant to develop when you see your changes take effect in real time. Below you can find the instructions on how to preview your local version of this theme.

  1. Open the repository in Visual Studio Code.
  2. Click F5 to switch to the "Debugger" section.
  3. Click on the "Play" button to run the theme in a separate extension window.
  4. In the newly opened VS Code window, press CMD + SHIFT + P, then type "Color Theme".

Editing the theme files under ./themes will update the running extension window automatically.
