Conversational Dark

A modern dark theme for Visual Studio Code and Positron, inspired by conversational AI interfaces (like Claude).
Balanced contrasts, warm highlights, and subtle accents designed for long coding sessions without eye strain.

Features

• Dark base background with soft gray text for readability.
• Warm accents inspired by AI chat UIs (violets, teals, and soft ambers).
• Explorer & Sidebar use muted colors (#9d88a8) so large file trees are easy on the eyes.
• Active Tab Highlighting: current file name stands out in violet, inactive tabs stay neutral.
• Syntax highlighting tuned for:
  • Keywords in bold orange-red (#d97757)
  • Strings in green (#90c695)
  • Numbers in amber (#e8a87c)
  • Functions in soft blue (#7eb6d9)
  • Comments in italic gray (#888888)
