# Flexoki v2 - VS Code Theme
A warm, analog-inspired color scheme for Visual Studio Code, based on [Flexoki by Steph Ango](https://stephango.com/flexoki).
## About Flexoki
Flexoki is an inky color scheme designed for reading and writing on digital screens. Inspired by analog inks and warm paper shades, it creates a distinctive yet familiar palette that feels like "pigment on paper."
### Key Features
- **📚 Optimized for Reading & Writing** - Calibrated for legibility across different devices and screen types
- **🎨 Analog-Inspired Colors** - Warm tones that emulate the feeling of ink on paper
- **🌓 Seamless Light Mode** - Designed primarily for light themes with high contrast
- **🎯 Perceptually Balanced** - Uses Oklab color space for optimal color relationships
- **🖋️ Watercolor Aesthetics** - Exponential color intensity that mimics real ink behavior
### Color Philosophy
The Flexoki palette consists of:
- **Base Colors**: Warm monochromatic values from background to text
- **Accent Colors**: 8 carefully selected colors for syntax highlighting
- **Extended Range**: Multiple intensity levels for each color (50-950 values)
Each color is designed to feel distinctive yet familiar, creating a cohesive experience that reduces eye strain during long coding sessions.
