Neovim Themes

Plugin your theme

First open vim plug and add your theme, you can add as many themes as you want here to switch between them at any time

I'm going to be installing the onedark theme I'll link to a repo with a bunch of others at the bottom of the blog

Open vim-plug/plugins.vim and add the following:

Plug 'joshdick/onedark.vim'

Make sure to run :PlugInstall

Theme config

First create a directory for themes and then add the name of the theme you want to install

mkdir ~/.config/nvim/themes touch ~/.config/nvim/themes/onedark.vim

Now let's set the colorscheme, open onedark.vim and add the following:

" onedark.vim override: Don't set a background color when running in a terminal; if (has("autocmd") && !has("gui_running")) augroup colorset autocmd! let s:white = { "gui": "#ABB2BF", "cterm": "145", "cterm16" : "7" } autocmd ColorScheme * call onedark#set_highlight("Normal", { "fg": s:white }) " `bg` will not be styled since there is no `bg` setting augroup END endif hi Comment cterm=italic let g:onedark_hide_endofbuffer=1 let g:onedark_terminal_italics=1 let g:onedark_termcolors=256 syntax on colorscheme onedark " checks if your terminal has 24-bit color support if (has("termguicolors")) set termguicolors hi LineNr ctermbg=NONE guibg=NONE endif

Note

This config is specific to this theme, checkout the readme for whatever theme you install

Now we can add our theme to init.vim

source $HOME/.config/nvim/themes/onedark.vim
