# Zenbones

Zenbones is a light vim/nvim colorscheme designed to highlight code using
contrasts and font variations. Colors are tasked only for other roles such as
diagnostics, diffs, search matches.

It's made using the handy [lush.nvim](https://github.com/rktjmp/lush.nvim).

## Requirements

Primarily built for nvim but it works pretty well with vim. However here are
some requirements to take full advantage of the colorscheme:

- 24-bit RGB colors (nvim or vim compiled with +termguicolors)
- Font with bold and italic
- Terminal or GUI with bold and italic support

## Usage

Install using your favorite plugin manager and just apply the colorscheme as
usual:

```vim
set termguicolors
colorscheme zenbones
```

Alternatively, if you want to make use of lua or you forked this repo and
tweaked the colors to your liking:

```vim
colorscheme zenbones-lua
```

To make it work however, you must also install lush.

## Inspirations

Zenbones is heavily inspired by
[Vervandi](https://github.com/be5invis/vsc-theme-verdandi) and
[vim-yin-yang](https://github.com/pgdouyon/vim-yin-yang). The name came from a
book called
[Zen Flesh, Zen Bones](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zen_Flesh,_Zen_Bones).
