I really do love the fun IDE colors.

Does anyone else switch IDE themes depending on the project? Whenever I started a new project I would choose a new theme to go with it.

I don't have any colors to suggest but I do have two fonts to recommend.

  1. Comic Code is a hand drawn monospaced font that invokes the feeling of Comic Sans without looking bad on modern monitors. I love it. The downside is that it isn't free, but if you're interested,
  2. Fantasque Sans Mono is the same idea but free.

These two fonts just make things feel a little more human and whimsical in a way I can't fully explain and I love them.

Also, about color themes, never let anyone.ake fun of you for using a light theme. Sometimes they're better. It's not so simple as dark or light, some tools have awful light themes or awful dark themes.

Great recommendations. I'm a fan of JetBrains Mono myself
