## 🚀 Usage

To use one of these themes in Helix:

1. Copy the desired theme file (e.g. `murmur.toml`) into your Helix themes directory:

   ```bash

   cp murmur.toml ~/.config/helix/themes/

   ```

2. Open Helix and apply the theme with the `:theme` command:

   ```helix

   :theme murmur

   ```

3. To set it as the **default theme**, add the following to your `~/.config/helix/config.toml`:

   ```toml

   theme = "murmur"

   ```

---

## 🌈 Transparent Themes

To create a **transparent** version of any theme:

1. Create a new file in your Helix themes directory, e.g. `murmur-transparent.toml`.

2. Paste the following content:

   ```toml

   inherits = "murmur"

   [ui.background]

   ```

This overrides the background to be transparent while keeping the rest of the theme intact.
