# Palestinian Flag Dark Inspired Theme for Visual Studio Code

This extension provides a dark theme for Visual Studio Code that is inspired by the colors of the Palestinian flag. It has been carefully crafted to provide a visually comfortable coding experience, particularly suitable for long sessions in low-light environments.

The theme incorporates the flag's characteristic colors (black, white, green, and red) in a balanced way that enhances readability and minimizes eye strain.

## Features

- Dark background to reduce glare and eye strain.
- Syntax highlighting that reflects the Palestinian flag's color scheme.
- Customized colors for UI components such as buttons, selection, and hover states.

## Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:
- [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/)
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) (which comes with [npm](http://npmjs.com/))

## Installation

Since this theme is not published on the Visual Studio Code Extension Marketplace, you will need to install it manually. You can either install it using the vsix file or build it from source. The vsix sources are being built and released automatically to this repository using GitHub Actions. Check the releases section for the latest version.

If you want to build the extension from source, you will need to clone this repository and package it yourself.
Here are the steps to do so:

1. Clone the repository to your local machine using Git:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/MohamedElashri/pal-theme
cd palestinian-flag-dark-theme-vscode
```

2. Install the Visual Studio Code Extension Manager (`vsce`) globally if you haven't already:

```sh
npm install -g vsce
```

3. Navigate to the root directory of the theme and package the extension:

```sh
vsce package
```

This will create a `.vsix` file which is the packaged extension.

4. Install the packaged extension to your Visual Studio Code:

```sh
code --install-extension palestinian-flag-dark-theme-*.vsix
```

Replace `palestinian-flag-dark-theme-*.vsix` with the actual name of the file generated by `vsce`.

## Activating the Theme

After installation, you can activate the theme by following these steps:

1. Open **Visual Studio Code**.
2. Go to `View` > `Command Palette` or press `Ctrl+Shift+P`.
3. Type `Theme`, choose `Preferences: Color Theme`, and select `Palestinian Flag Dark Inspired`.
