Zenflesh, Zenbones
Zenbones is a vim/neovim colorscheme designed to highlight code using contrasts and font variations. Colors are tasked only for other roles such as diagnostics, diffs, search matches.
A rock garden in Ryōan-ji.
Requirements
Primarily built for neovim but it works pretty well with vim. However here are some requirements to take full advantage of the colorscheme:
- 24-bit RGB colors (neovim or vim compiled with +termguicolors) i.e.
set termguicolors - Font with bold and italic
- Terminal or GUI with bold and italic support
Installation
Example installation using packer:
use "mcchrish/zenbones.nvim"
-- Optionally install Lush. Useful if you want to extend the theme
-- e.g. create a statusline plugin theme using zenbones colors
use "rktjmp/lush.nvim"
-- See Advanced Usage section for more details
Usage
Just apply the colorscheme as usual:
" light
colorscheme zenbones
" dark
colorscheme zenflesh
If you want to make use of the lua version:
" Requires `neovim` and `rktjmp/lush.nvim` installed
colorscheme zenbones-lush
colorscheme zenflesh-lush
It works pretty much the same as the first one but pretty handy when extending or customizing the colors to your likings.

Configuration is only available for zenbones-lush and zenflesh-lush.
