Describe the feature

File icons were added (yay!) but I struggle to differentiate the monochrome icons image

Adding colors would help me a lot image

Second this!

Suggest icon themes for folders as well.

The left image is a lot faster to navigate, as it's simpler to differentiate between folders.

Lack of colour coded icons actually makes it so hard to navigate a codebase, especially a new one.

I think this would fall under #8843.

I think this would fall under #8843.

I'm going to close this in favour of #8843, as it makes sense for the community to contribute their own icons, rather than for the Zed team to maintain multiple sets.

Be sure to +👍 the extension issue.

@Moshyfawn Was it considered to make the current icons colorful instead?

@Moshyfawn Was it considered to make the current icons colorful instead?

The current icon style is an intentional design decision, so I don't see us changing it.

Yeah I get that for sure, but I'm suggesting colors for accessibility, not because I like it design-wise

It's always good to have options. If themes are available, then it makes sense to give people the option to change how the icons look as well.
