Not having time is just a fact of life when it comes to community projects so no worries, I was just trying to clarify.
It's not like I have the time to do dive into Kotlin and the development of this theme at the moment either.

The theme generation in Kotlin should be done. It was the regeneration on the fly which I never managed to do. Link to the code: https://github.com/isofore/jetbrains/tree/accent-colors.
Hopefully some of it would be beneficial to whomever might do the rewrite.

Heya @FelixBrakel, the plugin, unfortunately, doesn't support all the eye-candy/accent colours atm. You're right that the description is copied over from the main repository.
In order to support the recompilation on the go, I believe this repository will need a Kotlin rewrite. Something that I don't have the time to do at the minute. I think this should be tracked on GitHub so, if it's alright with you, I can turn this into a tracking issue to support all the different eye candy colours!

Do you mean the accent colors, similar to VSCode?
Eye-candy here just refers to the colors being pleasant to look at, copied from the main repo description.
We'd need to rewrite the current theme with compilation support in Kotlin, so that when the user changes the accent color, the XML is regenerated. Both @sgoudham and I don't feel comfortable enough with Kotlin to attempt this - we had offers from people wanting to rewrite it, but nothing has come to fruition yet.

I have made an attempt on solving this.
The problem I have encountered is how to re-generate the files on accent color selection. Since the theme files are in the resources directory they cannot be modified. It might be impossible to re-generate the files as long as the theme files are in the resources directory.
Another non-optimal solution would be to just generate all variants at build time, but this will create a lot of unwanted options in the theme-selection drop down.

The latter is the solution many other implementations of this theme are going for, I wouldn't mind it.

Hi @FelixBrakel @isofore, just revisiting this issue based on #92 (cc: @JosephAbbey)
I didn't take this into account at the time but if we were to generate XML's for each flavour, accent colour and italic/non-italic. That's actually 4 * 14 * 2
which is a massive 112 XML files to ship. This would severely impact people's ability to scroll through other themes that they have installed so, unfortunately, I don't think we can go ahead with that.
Going off the discussion within the discord, there may be scope in potentially uploading multiple versions of the plugin on the marketplace, resulting in 14 jars for each account colour. I'm currently unsure if there's a marketplace policy that prevents this but it might be our best bet at shipping different UI colours without diving into the Kotlin Rewrite.
We could limit the accent coloured jars to just GitHub Releases but the tradeoff is that users will have to install plugins from disk, and therefore will not receive updates from the marketplace for that plugin, meaning that the user is in control of managing any updates (which I'm not a fan of)
I'm interested in what others think? Honestly, I'm swaying more towards just putting effort into a Kotlin rewrite so that we're following JetBrains' solution to reloading the UI.
from jetbrains.
I think that the kotlin approach is the way forward, because it would actually be 4 * 14 * 14 * 2
if selecting a secondary accent colour is allowed (currently defaults to yellow).
