vim dracula not consistent with IDE

[XDinEuro]

c++ code not fully colored.

I am using vim dracula for a long time and I really enjoy it. Recently I found out that the dracula in vs code is a bit different from in vim.

For example that same c++ code,
in vim functions are not highlighted with green color, and classes are not blue.

But in vscode it does.

I am just using normal shell.

@XDinEuro This is not an issue with the theme. Instead it's an issue with the syntax.

Vim is not equipped by default with a robust c/c++ syntax rules. If you feel the need to have those, you should be able to find some implemented as third-party plugins.

If you're not able to find any that you like for regular vim, the next version of neovim is shipping with a tree-sitter syntax parser, which will absolutely be able to highlight like vscode (actually, better).

Hope that helps.
