experimentacuity-first / high-contrastCustomize

When sharpness is the limiter, not glare. Near-white paper, near-black ink, and deep, fully-saturated-but-dark accents so every token clears AAA with room to spare. Code in Overpass Mono, prose in Lora.

Nocturne

Candela's first dark theme — a deep blue-gray night derived from Atom's classic One Dark, the palette a generation of developers grew up on. Accents lifted just enough to clear AA on the dark ground. Code in JetBrains Mono, prose in Public Sans.
