flexoki.nvim

Caution

I moved all color scheme code directly into my dotfiles repo. This plugin is now archived.

An inky color scheme for Neovim. Based on stephango.com/flexoki.

Features

• Complete dark and light themes using the Flexoki color palette
• Extensible integration system for community plugin support
• Diagnostic colors
• Treesitter support
• LSP support

Installation

Install plugin with your preferred package manager.

lazy.nvim

{
  "cpplain/flexoki.nvim",
  lazy = false,
  priority = 1000,
  opts = {},
}

Usage

Load the color scheme

-- Setup default and load color scheme
require("flexoki").setup()
vim.cmd.colorscheme("flexoki")

Switch between dark and light themes

By default, the color scheme will automatically switch between dark and light themes based on the value of background (:help background).

-- Switch to dark theme
vim.o.background = "dark"

-- Switch to light theme
vim.o.background = "light"

Customization

Flexoki provides a comprehensive override system allowing you to customize every aspect of the theme. All configuration options are optional - use only what you need:

require("flexoki").setup({
  -- Force theme (overrides vim.o.background)
  -- "auto" (default) | "dark" | "light"
  theme = "auto",

  -- Override base palette colors
  palette_override = {
    red600 = "#ff0000",  -- Direct hex values
    base950 = "#0a0a0a", -- Darker background
  },

  -- Customize dark theme semantic colors
  dark_override = function(colors)
    return {
      bg = "#000000",      -- Direct hex value
      tx = colors.base200, -- Or semantic color reference
      blue = "#00aaff",    -- Custom blue accent
    }
  end,

  -- Customize light theme semantic colors
  light_override = function(colors)
    return {
      bg = colors.paper, -- Semantic reference
      tx = "#1a1a1a",    -- Direct hex value
    }
  end,

  -- Override specific highlight groups
  highlight_override = function(colors)
    return {
      Comment = { fg = "#9966cc", italic = true },    -- Direct hex
      Function = { fg = colors.yellow, bold = true }, -- Semantic reference
      ["@keyword"] = { fg = "#ff6b9d" },              -- Direct hex
    }
  end,
})

Override Order

Overrides are applied in this order:

1. Palette Override → Modifies base Flexoki colors
2. Theme Override → Adjusts semantic color mapping
3. Highlight Override → Customizes final highlight groups

Available Colors

Palette Colors (for palette overrides):

• Base: black, base950 through base50, paper
• Colors: red950 through red50 (and similar for all accent colors)

Semantic Colors (for theme overrides):

• bg, bg2 - Background colors
• ui, ui2, ui3 - UI element colors
• tx, tx2, tx3 - Text colors
• red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, magenta - Accent colors
• Each accent has variants: red2, red3, red4 for different intensities

See docs/palette.md for the complete color reference.

Color Values

All override functions accept either:

• Hex strings: "#ff0000", "#1a1a1a"
• Semantic references: colors.red600, colors.base950
