🛠️ Development

For Contributors

Prerequisites

To build the theme, make sure the following are installed:

• Lua
• Luarocks
• jq (for JSON formatting)

Install the required Lua dependencies via (from nvim-nightfox-<version>.rockspec):

luarocks make --only-deps --local

Development Workflow

1. Create a fork of the repository and clone it locally.
2. Use a descriptive name for your topic branch.
3. Edit the Lua files in lib/.
4. Run make dev command to generate a theme file in themes/ with theme names suffixed with (dev).

Testing

One can test the changes in Zed directly by using a symlink of the generated theme file:

1. Run ln -s $(pwd)/themes/nvim-nightfox.json ~/.config/zed/themes/ (macOS example).
2. Restart Zed.
3. The (dev) marked themes should now be available within the editor's theme picker.

Build

make prod

This generates the appropriate production-ready Zed theme file.
