gruvbox

Retro groove color scheme for Vim.

Gruvbox is heavily inspired by badwolf, jellybeans and solarized.

Designed as a bright theme with pastel 'retro groove' colors and light/dark mode switching in the way of solarized. The main focus when developing Gruvbox is to keep colors easily distinguishable, contrast enough and still pleasant for the eyes.

Color scheme is in early development stage, so this could serve as working preview.

Features

• Distraction-free HTML highlighting

• Hand-tuned plugin-specific highlighting for EasyMotion, Better Rainbow Parentheses and Indent Guides

Usage

gruvbox comes in two modes, dark and light. To toggle between them with F5 you can add these to your .vimrc

map <F5> :call ToggleBg()<CR>
function! ToggleBg()
	if &background == 'dark'
		set bg=light
	else
		set bg=dark
	endif

	colo gruvbox
endfunc

Just setting background to an appropriate value would work as well

set bg=dark    " Setting dark mode
set bg=light   " Setting light mode

ToDo

• Terminal low-color mode (<256)
• More fyletype specific highlighting
• Customizable options (overrides, background switch, etc.)
• Powerline colors
