verdigris.nvim

A warm dark Neovim colorscheme inspired by oxidized copper, patina greens, muted aqua/teal, and gruvbox-like readability.

Verdigris is earthy, calm, readable, and terminal-friendly: a gruvbox/everforest-adjacent palette grounded in weathered bronze and vellum, with patina greens and aqua as identity colors and ochre as a restrained brass accent.

  },
  overrides = {},
})

Example with options:

require("verdigris").setup({
  transparent = true,
  italics = {
    comments = true,

  },
  bold = {
    functions = true,
