README
ZenGarden is a color scheme for neovim that tries to be
calm and relaxing, while still retaining some important properties
from color theory (contrast, uniform lightness, uniform chromma).
This colorscheme is created with [lush](https://github.com/rktjmp/lush.nvim),
and therefore depends on it.
# Screenshots
# Installation
## Packer
```
use { "tobi-wan-kenobi/zengarden",
requires = "rktjmp/lush.nvim",
config = function()
vim.cmd [[ colorscheme zengarden ]]
end
}
```
## Configuration
Optionally, you can call `setup()` on the module to set parameters:
```
use { "tobi-wan-kenobi/zengarden",
requires = "rktjmp/lush.nvim",
config = function()
require("zengarden").setup({
variant = "yellow"
})
vim.cmd [[ colorscheme zengarden ]]
end
}
```
Currently, you can set the following parameters:
* `variant`: sets highlight colors for float, menu, etc. to one of: `yellow` (the default),
`cyan`, `orange`, `magenta`, `green`
* `italics`: whether italics should be used (default) or not, boolean value
# Palette
## Dark
* Chroma = 0.1
* Lightness = 65 (73 for light)

# Design
My attempt was to create a colorscheme by following color theory (to the extent I understand it).
After some research, I settled on OKLCH, which defines "perceived" lightness and chroma (roughly saturation). Keeping lightness and chroma consistent across accent colors *should* result in a harmonous over appearance.
Additionally, care was taken to keep contrast above the WCAG recommendation of 4.5:1 (except for the light colors of the light color theme, where contrast is a bit lower than that).
