Installation

From VS Code Marketplace

ext install robbyfuu.robbydev-theme

From Open VSX (Cursor, VSCodium, Theia)

ext install Robbyfuu.robbydev-theme

Or open the Extensions panel, search RobbyDev, click Install.

Activate

Cmd+K Cmd+T (macOS) or Ctrl+K Ctrl+T (Windows/Linux), then pick:

  • RobbyDev
  • RobbyDev Black
  • RobbyDev Mirage

Neon Dreams (optional glow effect)

Each token in the editor emits a soft halo in its own color — purple keywords glow purple, lime strings glow green, cyan types glow cyan. The cursor and active borders pulse in RobbyDev magenta.

⚠️ Disclaimer. Editors like VS Code and Cursor don't natively support runtime CSS injection. The glow works by patching the editor's workbench.html in your install directory. The editor will mark itself as "corrupted" on next launch — this is normal and dismissible. Each editor update reverts the patch; just re-run the enable command. Use at your own risk.

Enable

  1. Set your active theme to any RobbyDev variant.
  2. Open the command palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P).
  3. Run RobbyDev: Enable Neon Dreams.
  4. Restart the editor when prompted.

On Windows, run the editor as administrator the first time. On macOS/Linux, your editor must be installed in a location you have write access to.

Disable

Command palette → RobbyDev: Disable Neon Dreams → restart.

Configure brightness

Add to your settings.json:

{
  "robbydev.neonBrightness": 0.45,
  "robbydev.disableGlow": false
}
Setting Type Default Effect
robbydev.neonBrightness 0–1 0.45 Glow intensity
robbydev.disableGlow boolean false Keep chrome polish but turn off the heavy text-shadow

Re-run Enable Neon Dreams after changing settings.

Corruption warning

Since v2.0.2 the extension recalculates the workbench checksum and updates product.json automatically when you enable or disable Neon Dreams, so no warning should appear. If your editor still complains:

  • Make sure you ran Enable Neon Dreams through the command palette (CLI / sudo edits won't update the checksum).
  • After an editor update, the original product.json is restored. Run Enable Neon Dreams again.

Pair with a font that has italic ligatures for the best look:
