This color scheme is a port of Sonokai for Visual Studio Code.

Sometimes I need a high contrast color scheme, and I think monokai is one of the best solutions, it's very beautiful and vivid.

However there is one thing I can't stand -- the contrast is too high, which is totally unacceptable for me.

This color scheme is based on Monokai Pro, the contrast is adjusted to be a bit lower while keeping the colors vivid enough.

The shusia, maia and espresso variants are basically modified versions of Monokai Pro. I'm not going to port all variants of Monokai Pro because I don't like some of them. In addition, I designed some new variants inspired by other color schemes.
