onedark.vim is a dark colour scheme for Vim/Neovim created by Josh Dick, inspired by the Atom editor’s “One Dark” theme. It aims to offer a modern, balanced palette with good contrast and readability across many programming languages and file types. The theme supports both plain Vim and Neovim, and works well with statusline plugins like vim-airline or lightline by providing compatible theme files. Users appreciate that the colour choices remain consistently comfortable over long coding sessions and that the theme handles syntax elements (keywords, methods, variables) in a clear, differentiated way. Because it is actively maintained, it supports modern setups and integrates with many plugins. Setting it as your colourscheme typically gives Vim a fresh, stylish visual look very quickly.
