The DARK theme is the flagship Lynx experience. It sets an almost-black #080c09 editor canvas against a saturated emerald #10b981 accent — a pairing that maximises contrast without the harshness of a pure #000000 background. Every surface in the editor, from the title bar to the activity bar badge, is tuned to keep your eyes locked on the code rather than the chrome around it.

​

Key Color Tokens

The values below are extracted directly from 01_Lynx-Dark-theme.json. These are the tokens most visible during everyday editing. 
{
  // Editor canvas & title bar
  "editor.background":              "#080c09",   // Deep black editor canvas
  "titleBar.activeBackground":      "#090c0a",   // Title bar background

  // Primary accent — used on badges, active borders, and focus outlines
  "activityBarBadge.background":    "#10b981",   // Notification badge
  "list.focusOutline":              "#10b981",   // Keyboard-focus ring
  "activityBar.activeBorder":       "#34d399",   // Active item side-border

  // Menu interaction colors
  "menu.selectionForeground":       "#10b981",   // Selected menu item text
  "menubar.selectionForeground":    "#10b981",   // Hovered menu-bar item text

  // Title bar foreground
  "titleBar.activeForeground":      "#e8f0ec"    // Title bar text & icons
}
Semantic highlighting is enabled for this theme ("semanticHighlighting": true). Language servers will color variable declarations, parameter types, and symbol reads/writes independently from syntax tokens, giving you richer, more accurate code coloring in TypeScript, Rust, Python, and other semantics-aware languages.
The DARK theme pairs best with Style A icons (lynx-icons-dark). Style A’s deep-toned file and folder icons complement the near-black editor background and keep the explorer sidebar visually consistent with the overall palette.
