A colour scheme for Sublime Text and Visual Studio Code that takes design cues from popular minimalist Markdown text editors.
A pair of colour schemes for writing Markdown in Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code, and other .tmTheme
editors. It takes aesthetic cues from popular minimalist writing apps and aims to lessen the visual impact of markdown punctuation. It also attempts to support the full range of Markdown syntax ranging from Markdown, MultiMarkdown, Github Flavoured Markdown, and Pandoc Markdown.
Note that this theme is specifically designed for Markdown. To configure Sublime Text such that this theme is always used for just Markdown files, first open up a Markdown file, and then in the menu bar open up the syntax-specific settings via Preferences > Settings - More > Syntax Specific - User.
Add in either:
"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Gray Matter/Gray Matter Light.tmTheme",
Or:
"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Gray Matter/Gray Matter Dark.tmTheme",
While in this file here are another few options you may want to consider in order to better match a more traditional Markdown text editor:
"draw_centered": true,
"font_size": 18,
"gutter": false,
"highlight_line": false,
"line_numbers": true,
"line_padding_bottom": 4,
"line_padding_top": 4,
"tab_size": 4,
"word_wrap": true,
"wrap_width": 90
This color scheme pairs well with Boxy Yesterday if you desire a similar aesthetic for the wider Sublime Text chrome.
Currently the theme is available through the Visual Studio Marketplace. You can then activate it in the Preferences
> Color Theme
section of the menu.
Tests use sublime_color_scheme_unit to test for regressions. Once installed (via Package Control) the :TestSuite
command in the Command Palette will run the test set.

Sublime Text works with the .thTheme
files in the root directory. To publish to Package Control just tag the version and push from master.
Visual Studio code uses the *-color-theme.json
files in the root directory which contain a number of VSC-specific settings for the editor chrome and import the .tmTheme
for basic syntax highlighting. To publish to the Visual Studio Marketplace (requires the vsce
package from npm install
):
$ vsce publish 1.2.0
Atom uses the .less
