The best implementation of Sarah Drasner's Night Owl VSCode theme for Neovim with support for Tree-sitter and semantic tokens.
use("oxfist/night-owl.nvim")
require("lazy").setup({ "oxfist/night-owl.nvim", lazy = false, -- make sure we load this during startup if it is your main colorscheme priority = 1000, -- make sure to load this before all the other start plugins config = function() -- load the colorscheme here require("night-owl").setup() vim.cmd.colorscheme("night-owl") end, })
Plug 'oxfist/night-owl.nvim'Note
You can skip this step if you followed the lazy.nvim setup, which
already sets the colorscheme.
Add the following to your Lua configuration files, e.g.
~/.config/nvim/init.lua (your actual path might be different):
require("night-owl").setup() vim.cmd.colorscheme("night-owl")
To enable night-owl for lualine.nvim, simply set the theme like this in your
settings π:
-- This Lualine config should be somewhere in your config files require('lualine').setup { options = { -- ... other configs theme = 'night-owl' -- ... other configs } }
The styling of the theme can be customized by calling setup():
local night_owl = require("night-owl") -- π Add your own personal settings here --@param options Config|nil night_owl.setup({ -- These are the default settings bold = true, italics = true, underline = true, undercurl = true, transparent_background = false, })

How does this port compare to the original VSCode theme? Check it out!

This implementation of Night Owl solves several syntax highlight issues and discrepancies similar ports have when comparing to the original VSCode theme.
The following features allow making the programming experience as close to the original VSCode theme as possible:
- Extended highlight groups: through additional Treesitter queries. See
after/queriesfor implementation details. - Different background color when Neovim is inactive: through autocommands.
See
after/plugin/autocmds.luafor implementation details.
π Click to see comparison with haishanh/night-owl.vim
With Treesitter installed you can see the overall look and feel is significantly different:
- Different colors for several keywords like
let,const,async,function, etc. Same happens for class namesEditFishFormandSale. - Italics not applied anywhere except for comments.
- Italics incorrectly applied to JSDoc keywords

Note
I've personally optimized the colorscheme styling and robustness for these languages extensively enough to confidently say they look acceptable to me. If you happen to build software with them, then I invite you to try out this theme! π

- Sarah Drasner first and foremost, for creating such a beautiful and artistic color scheme that has made, for me personally, so much more pleasurable the exhilirating act of building software.
- https://www.monolisa.dev/ for one of the sweetest programming fonts out there.
- Christian Chiarulli for creating
colorgen-nvim, an essential tool that helped me get started with this implementation.
