Features

Four more colors

Quasarized is a simple extention of Solarized color scheme. It adds 4 colors to main tones as described below. They are used for better readability or in UI components.

• (002b36) was base03 in Solarized
• (073642) was base02 in Solarized
• (421307) NEW (compliment color of Dark3)
• (30525c) NEW
• (586e75) was base01 in Solarized
• (657b83) was base00 in Solarized
• (839496) was base0 in Solarized
• (93a1a1) was base1 in Solarized
• (c1c5bb) NEW
• (eee8d5) was base2 in Solarized
• (d4daee) NEW (compliment color of Light3)
• (fdf6e3) was base3 in Solarized

Dark and light modes are completely symmetric.

Flipping assinged colors in main tones gets the other mode.
The rest part of files are identical.

Types in , Functions in , and Variables in

The other elements are assigned to quiet colors. It suits for strongly typed languages, which we love.

Memo

About name

There is no color scheme starting with 'q' in helix builtin schemes. So it would be nice for completion. And GPT-5 proposed this one.
