Solarized
=========

A precision colorscheme for machines and people.

What
----

Solarized is a 16 color palette with several unique properties. It has been
designed with both precise L\*A\*B lightness relationships and a refined set of
hues based on fixed color wheel relationships. It has been tested extensively
in real world use on color calibrated displays and in a variety of lighting
conditions.

Features
--------

Selective contrast
: Solarized reduces brightness based contrast in general. Our display devices
today are capable of blasting off your retina with brightness and I found
my eyes growing tired using high contrast colorschemes. Solarized reduces
brightness contrast but, unlike many low contrast colorschemes, retains
contrasting hues (based on colorwheel relations) for syntax highlighting
readability.

Dual mode: Dark/Light
: I switch between dark and light modes when editing text even when editing
different types of files.

Features/Benefits
--------
Selective contrast / Reduced eye fatigue
Colorwheel relations / Timeless design qualities
