SilkCircuit

Appearance

Installation ​

SilkCircuit requires Neovim 0.10+ with true color support enabled.

Prerequisites ​

Ensure true colors are enabled in your config:

lua
vim.opt.termguicolors = true

Package Managers ​

lua
{
  "hyperb1iss/silkcircuit",
  lazy = false,
  priority = 1000,
  config = function()
    require("silkcircuit").setup({
      -- your options here
    })
    vim.cmd.colorscheme("silkcircuit")
  end,
}

packer.nvim ​

lua
use {
  "hyperb1iss/silkcircuit",
  config = function()
    require("silkcircuit").setup({})
    vim.cmd("colorscheme silkcircuit")
  end
}

vim-plug ​

vim
Plug 'hyperb1iss/silkcircuit'

" In your config:
lua require("silkcircuit").setup({})
colorscheme silkcircuit

AstroNvim Integration ​

SilkCircuit works with AstroNvim out of the box:

lua
-- In your lua/community.lua file:
return {
  "AstroNvim/astrocommunity",
  { "hyperb1iss/silkcircuit", name = "silkcircuit" },
}

-- In your lua/plugins/astroui.lua file:
return {
  "AstroNvim/astroui",
  opts = {
    colorscheme = "silkcircuit",
  },
}

Verifying Installation ​

After installation, run the health check:

vim
:checkhealth silkcircuit

This will verify:

  • Neovim version compatibility
  • True color support
  • Theme loading status
  • Plugin integrations
  • WCAG contrast compliance

Troubleshooting ​

Theme not loading? ​

  1. Ensure Neovim 0.10 or newer is installed
  2. Add vim.opt.termguicolors = true to your config
  3. Verify plugin installation with :Lazy or :PackerStatus

Colors look wrong? ​

  1. Your terminal must support true colors (24-bit)
  2. Check your terminal's color settings
  3. Try a different terminal emulator

Performance issues? ​

  1. Run :checkhealth silkcircuit
  2. Set vim.g.silkcircuit_debug = true and restart to see the measured load time
  3. Open an issue with that number and your plugin list
