Introduction

SilkCircuit is a unified color system for your entire development environment. One palette, consistent semantics, and WCAG AA contrast, from Neovim to VS Code to your terminal to your browser.

Why SilkCircuit?

Electric Meets Elegant

SilkCircuit themes 30 tools with the same palette and semantic mappings. Keywords are always purple, functions are always cyan, strings are always pink, whether you're in Neovim, VS Code, or reading a diff in your terminal.

Performance First

The Neovim theme loads in about 5ms with every integration defined up front. There is no cache to regenerate and nothing to warm: instant electric energy on every start.

Accessibility Built-In

All color combinations meet WCAG AA standards (4.5:1 contrast ratio minimum). Code longer without eye strain.
