helix

a theme file per variant. it colors the editor, pickers, popups, statusline, diagnostics and the tree-sitter scopes, with the same syntax roles as the other editors. tested on helix 25.07.

files: rime.toml · rime-glacier.toml · rime-aurora.toml · rime-abyss.toml · rime-frost.toml · on github

helix names a theme after its file. pick it with :theme {{slug}}, or set it at the top of ~/.config/helix/config.toml:

theme = "rime"

theme = "rime-glacier"

theme = "rime-aurora"

theme = "rime-abyss"

theme = "rime-frost"

to follow the terminal's light and dark mode:

[theme]
dark = "rime"
light = "rime-frost"

notes

• helix gives struct fields and the keys in json, yaml and toml one scope, so keys are plain text, as in zed.
• html attributes share the attribute scope with decorators, so they're teal instead of yellow.
• the statusline colors its mode the way rime's lualine theme does when editor.color-modes is on.
