# GitHub Syntax Theme Store

A centralized repository of syntax highlighting themes for the [GitHub Syntax Themes](https://github.com/calebephrem/github-syntax-themes) browser extension.

This store provides a collection of JSON theme files that define consistent syntax colors for GitHub code blocks, markdown snippets, etc.

## What It Does

The theme store acts as a **registry of themes**. Each theme is defined in a simple JSON format and can be loaded by the extension.

Themes describe:

- **Name** → Human‑readable theme name

- **Author** → GitHub username of the contributor

- **Type** → `light` or `dark`

- **SyntaxHighlighting** → Token colors for keywords, strings, comments, functions, etc.

- **Optional icon** → Theme preview icon

## Example Theme File

```json

{

  "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/calebephrem/github-syntax-theme-store/refs/heads/main/schema.json",

  "name": "Dracula",

  "author": "dracula",

  "type": "dark",

  "description": "Classic dark theme with vibrant syntax colors",

  "syntaxHighlighting": {

    "comment": "#ffffff70",

    "constant": "#ffdd70",

    "constantNumeric": "#00ddee",

    "constantBuiltin": "#ffdd70",

    "keyword": "#86ff72",

    "keywordControl": "#86ff72",

    "string": "#aaff4f",

    "stringRegexp": "#00ddee",

    "variable": "#c0c0ff"

  }

}

```

## How It Works

- The **extension** fetches themes from this repository.

- Each theme JSON is validated against the **GitHub Syntax Themer Schema** (`schema.json`).

- The extension maps these values to GitHub’s internal syntax system (`.pl-*` classes and PrettyLights CSS variables).

- Users can switch themes from the extension popup.

## Contributing

We welcome contributions of new themes or improvements to existing ones.

To contribute:

1. Fork this repository.

2. Add your theme JSON file under the `themes/` directory.

3. Ensure your file matches the schema (`schema.json`).

4. Submit a pull request.

> [!TIP]

> Just provide the [schema.json](./schema.json) file along with a VS Code theme file of your choice to an AI agent, and it will generate a fully compatible theme file for you automatically. No manual writing needed ✨

Please include:

- Theme name and description

- Author (your GitHub username)

- Theme type (`light` or `dark`)

- SyntaxHighlighting values

- Optional icon URL

## Features
