Tools supported other than neovim. You can find their respective theme in extras. You can always submit a PR for any tool that is missing 💙

opts= {},
}Packer:
use { "sample-usr/rakis.nvim" }vim.cmd[[colorscheme rakis]]colorscheme rakisYou can set the light or dark mode using the vim background options
vim.o.background="dark"Or load a specific variant directly, regardless of background:
colorscheme rakis-dark
colorscheme rakis-lightThe palette is drawn from the world of Dune: the dark variant is the deep desert night of a sietch, the light variant the same desert at noon. Accent hues are identical across both variants.

Below is an example of all the available configuration options with their default values:
require("rakis").setup({
-- Enable transparent backgroundtransparent=false,
-- Enable italics commentsitalic_comments=false,
-- Replace all fillchars with ' 'hide_fillchars=false,
-- Borderless look for telescopeborderless_telescope=true,
-- Set terminal colors used in `:terminal`terminal_colors=true,
-- Improve start up time by caching highlights. Generate cache with :RakisBuildCache and clear with :RakisClearCachecache=false,
theme= {
variant="default", -- use "light" for the light variant. Also accepts "auto" to set dark or light colors based on the current value of `vim.o.background`highlights= {
-- Highlight groups to override, adding new groups is also possible-- See `:h highlight-groups` for a list of highlight groups or run `:hi` to see all groups and their current values-- Example:Comment= { fg="#696969", bg="NONE", italic=true },
},
-- Override a highlight group entirely using the color paletteoverrides=function(colors) -- NOTE: This function nullifies the `highlights` option-- Example:return {
Comment= { fg=colors.oasis, bg="NONE", italic=true },
["@property"] = { fg=colors.bloom, bold=true },
}
