Language statistics colors about github-dark HOT 14 CLOSED

That is quite a task you set for yourself.

You can get the full list of languages from here: https://github.com/github/linguist/blob/master/lib/linguist/languages.yml

But I reduced it down for you and made a demo showing the colors

from github-dark.

Wow, that's really helpful!

I'll probably just improve the harder-to-read ones, or else I'll probably get mad finding unique colors.

if possible, utitlize http://cssdesk.com/ and share it in this issue so we can watch the issue and contribute.

Had to use style$ selectors which could drop performance a bit, but I'm not seeing any lighter way of doing this. Let me know how you like the new colors!

from github-dark.

Looks like we need to update some of our selectors, as this among others, this got live:

Looked through languages.yml, but didn't spot any changes that would require attention, but we should be aware of github-linguist/linguist@3dc1118 which will probably go live sooner or later.

Language colors have some minor changes, and some definitions are missing:

Might need to regenerate a new color table, ideally with a few unused colors to expand later.

Maybe we can try it without these definitions and see if we can do without... ya never know!

from github-dark.

Hmm, maybe with some filter magic (more brightness primarily).

@silverwind What do you think of these settings? I tried 200%, but it was a bit too bright. The only dark color I've discovered so far is ruby, but it's not that bad.

Not bad at all, I like it!
