Dracula for Helix editor
Closed this issue · 9 comments
Helix is a post-modern modal editor, has native tree-sitter and LSP integrations and use base16 themes. There’s already a attempt to implement dracula for helix
however the existing theme doesn’t seem to match the official specs and doesn’t integrate very well with treesitter.
Below an example of an Elixir code in helix
and neovim
both with dracula theme applied:
I ‘ll try to create an official port of this theme, but I’m very noob on theme creation, so any help and/or amterial would be awesome. I’ll reference the vim theme, although I ain’t used to vimscript.
Hi Zoey, would you like to try an iteration to improve this? 😅
As much as I would like to help with this (and all others), I can't do so now. This is why the community is essential for this project to continue evolving. 🌱
✅ Please tell me if I can help you unblock something!
Yeah, I'll give it a try! I never wrote a theme but helix theme API is so simple and it uses tree-sitter natively, so I think I could have success on this port.
Does you have any recommendations or tips for writing/porting a theme?
It's already included in helix.

Still, we would need the instructions in the template format to display and list on the website. I'm a little overwhelmed at the moment, so let me know if you can and want to do it. 😅
