Preview of the Windows Terminal Themes

Windows Terminal Themes

Preview and copy themes for the new Windows Terminal.

Use the project at https://atomcorp.github.io/themes/

How to use the themes

This site let's you preview and then copy a theme you like (or download a json file with all of them).

The official docs for Windows Terminal seem to very thoroughly explain how to change the settings, but essentially:

  • open Windows Terminal settings
  • add your chosen theme(s) to schemes
  • in profiles, find the shell you're using (eg cmd, powershell, ubuntu) and replace colorScheme with the name of the theme
  • 🥳

Contribute a theme

Ideally for the ecosystem new themes should be proposed to iTerm2-Color-Schemes (where most of these themes come from), then everyone can benefit.

If not, new themes can be add added with a pull request. Just add them to the list in app/src/custom-colour-schemes.json. You shouldn't need to run anything. If you'd like to receive credit, or know who should, please add it to this README when submitting.

Credits

  • The OneDark theme was created by azrikahar
  • The DraculaPlus, Material Darker and OneStar theme was created by jos3s
  • Monokai Cmder by vdurante

Running

Install using yarn and run using yarn start, this should start both the React app and Express server.

You can run all the tests with yarn test:dev.

E2E tests are run with cypress. You can use yarn cy:open to open and develop using the Dashboard and run test suite with yarn cy:run. There's a few unit test using Jest that you can develop using yarn unit:watch.

There's CI with CircleCI and there's visual regression tests with Percy to.

Compiling the themes

The json list is generated from another repo, github.com/atomcorp/terminal-api. It merges all the schemes found in the iTerm2-Color-Schemes/windowsterminal using the GitHub API, then combines it with src/custom-colour-schemes.json in this repo. It runs on a server with a daily cron job.

Todo

  • a way to share themes
  • testing with cypress
  • automating the compilation step
  • improve responsiveness
  • add a codeblock view
  • nicer UI
  • create monorepo with terminal-api
  • add theme credits into app
  • use canvas for rendering the colour test
  • code refactor/tidy (it's gotten so ugly 😭)
