Important: CSS Hacks For Extra Sweet Editor

Some things in VS Code can't be controlled by settings, but you can install this plugin, then make a file on your computer that will hold your custom CSS, I like to make one in my root called ~/.vscodestyles.css and then put this everything in vscodestyles.css into your file. Once done, open your command palette and select enable custom CSS and JS

Finally reload your editor and the Custom CSS should be taking.

Note: Reloading custom CSS and JS after every VSCode update is a must!

I don't like something

First, this theme is new so if something is funky, please open an issue.

These are the things we have control over. If you would like to change something, you can either open a PR and see if I'd like it added, or override the colours in your own settings.json file.
