Suggestion: Increase contrast

Open dwettstein opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

I really like the onehalf themes (both light and dark), however, IMHO the contrast could be better, especially when using the light theme. What do you guys think of increasing the contrast?

  • Current contrast of dark theme: image
  • Increased contrast of dark theme: image
  • Current contrast of light theme: image
  • Increased contrast of light theme: image

Note: According to WCAG, the contrast ratio can range from 1 (lowest) to 21 (highest).

Yeah, I totally agree. I'm using OneHalf Light, and the colors are really pleasing to the eye. But the contrasts are very low. It's sometimes hard to differentiate red or green from the white background. However, changing colors to provide more contrast while maintaining the same vibe requires a deep understanding of colors.
